Depends which branch of service. In the US Army, Air Force, and Marine Corps there are two Lieutenant ranks - Second Lieutenant (O-1) - which is the lowest commissioned officer rank - and First Lieutenant (O-2), which is the next rank up.
Likewise in the Navy and Coast Guard, there are also two Lieutenant ranks - Lieutenant Junior Grade - which is pay grade O-2 and equivalent to a First Lieutenant in any other branch - and Lieutenant - which is pay grade O-3 and equivalent to a Captain in any other branch. After (Navy) Lieutenant comes Lieutenant Commander, which is equivalent to a US Army/Air Force/Marine Corps Major.

∙ 13y agoIn which branch? The US Army, Air Force, and Marine Corps have two Lieutenant ranks - Second Lieutenant (O1) and First Lieutenant (O2). Second Lieutenant would be the rank before First Lieutenant, and there really would be no rank before Second Lieutenant, except for cadet, OCS candidate, etc. The Navy also have two Lieutenant ranks - Lieutenant JG (O2) and Lieutenant (O3), with Lieutenant JG coming before Lieutenant, and Ensign would be the rank which came before Lieutenant JG.

Is lieutenant a higher rank than first or second lieutenant?
i think so. cuz in movies u nevr hear any1 address a first or second lieutenant This depends. Second Lieutenants and First Lieutenants are both addressed verbally as "Lieutenant". The Army, Marine Corps, and Air Force have Second Lieutenants as the lowest Commissioned Officer rank. They are then promoted to First Lieutenants. The next rank for Army, Marine Corps, and Air Force Officers is Captain. The Navy has the rank of Lieutenant but is a higher rank. Naval Officers begin as Ensign. They are promoted to Lieutenant JG (junior grade) and then to Lieutenant. The Navy Lieutenant is the equivalent of an Army Captain. The Navy also has the Captain rank, but the Navy Captain is the equivalent of an Army Colonel.
