Are all military pilots officers (non-NCO)?

Recent? Having retired from the USN on 29 February 2000, I feel your pain on that. The first SEA to the Chairman began serving in that position on 1 October 2015, a decade ago. Wiki has a page about it. There have been three SEAs to the Chairman and also a short (2 years plus change) period when the billet was unfilled.

OK, him: either he or the green 2LT better better put their coffee down when they pass or there’ll be trouble.

Just guessing here.
