Where do midshipmen fall in the chain of command?

Hello, I'm rather confused at where Midshipmen fall in the Armed Forces chain of command.

I thought that they were not active duty and didn't fall in the chain of command at all, but than I read this,

"In the United States Navy a Midshipman is for all intents and purposes an officer cadet, although the rank of Midshipman is still an appointed line officer rank in the Navy...".

So are midshipmen actually in the chain of command, somewhere thrown in with the enlisted, warrant officer, and commissioned officers?
