What additional item is worn on specific team ribbons by leading cadets?

The gold anchor is worn on specific team ribbons by leading cadets to signify their leadership role and outstanding performance within the team. This insignia serves as a visual recognition of the cadet's commitment and contribution, elevating their status among peers. The gold anchor not only represents naval traditions but also embodies qualities such as teamwork, responsibility, and excellence, making it a prestigious addition to the cadet's uniform.

In this context, the other options—gold medal, gold ace, and gold cord—are not associated with the specific role of leading cadets in the NJROTC program, which is where the gold anchor is specifically designated for this purpose.
