Lieutenant Colonel. Always capitalized. Actually, only capitalize both words when used as part of a formal title, e.g. Lieutenant Colonel John Kurtz, US Army, or when used as a proper noun in place of an actual name, e.g. "We reported that the Captain had died to the Lieutenant Colonel" (where "Captain" and "Lieutenant Colonel" were specific people, not just generic ranks). In all other cases, the "L" should be capitalized (but the "C" should not) when it starts the beginning of a sentence. Neither should be capitalized when referring to the generic rank, e.g. "The meeting looked like a convocation of lieutenant colonels." Also, in that example, note how "lieutenant colonel" is puralized - adding an "s" to "colonel", not to "lieutenant".
