[Craig] Yes, that's why a primate "troop leader" is biological, but a calvary troop leader is social. [Krimel] Obviously I think that both are social and the only way to conclude otherwise is to adopt a taxonomic system that ignores the structure, function, origins and development of the matter under question. Ron: It's "cavalry" in military terms not calvary which is a hill. Officers used to be chosen on social merit in Victorian times but anyone from society may be an officer today. They go to Academic training at Military Academies. They are intellectual positions earned. just a note.
