I don't know the breakdown but the COLOR of the acorn cord indicates what part of the army you are in Cavalry, Artillery. etc.
I know I'm late with this but...
Sky blue= Infantry, red= Field Artillery, yellow= Cavalry (Air Cav or Armor in the modern Army), orange= Signal Corps, green= Military Police. Colors have changed over the years but the basics, Infantry blue, Cavalry Yellow("She wore a Yellow Ribbon") and Artillery red, have remained more or less constant.
