Stalker seems to be the 1st sgt of the team whether he's an E-7 or E-8 or E-9. He's the first member after Hawk according to the origins series. But then the girl refers to Duke as "You have First Shirt written all over you." Not to mention Duke is a Major in the Movie but I won't go there.
This seems more like a case of they have no idea and don't care.
But to quote Robert Atkins who is one of the artist responsible:
"Up to this point its been Hawk then Scarlett, then the field commanders (Duke, Stalker) and their specialists. I dont see the two as having set teams. Only that they would bring with them those who are best suited for the mission. Unless you're Stalker, than you only allow Joes with mustaches on your team."
Still this doesn't answer many questions but if you join GIJoe comic book forum you can ask him.
I know. Like OB said, they just need to establish a clear, consistent command structure and just stick to it. If Stalker is number 2 or 3 or whatever, his rank should reflect it. If they decide to make Scarlett an officer and put her in charge of Duke, then fine. Just make it clear and don't put an E-5 Stalker in charge of an E-8 Duke or something like that.
