Company Grade Officers.
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.
Company Commander will typically be a Captain.. in some cases, they may even be a Major, and there are times when it'll be a First Lieutenant who is on the verge of being promoted to Captain. Executive Officer will be a First Lieutenant. Platoon Leaders will hold the rank of either Second Lieutenant or First Lieutenant. Other officers.. depends on what kind of unit it is, exactly. Some units (such as aviation) will have a number of Warrant Officers, as well.
yes. captain outranks lieutenant.
In the Navy, the ranks are (in ascending order) Ensign, Junior Lieutenant, Lieutenant, Lieutenant Commander, Commander, Captain, Rear Admiral (lower half), Rear Admiral (upper half), Vice Admiral, Admiral, and Fleet Admiral. In the Army and Air force, the ranks are (in ascending order) Second Lieutenant, First Lieutenant, Captain, Major, Lieutenant Colonial, Colonial, Brigadier general, Major General, Lieutenant general, General, and general of the army (or air force).

The 'commander', a term not normally used, of a British (not 'English'!) warship is known as the 'commanding officer' or 'captain'. In this sense, the term, 'captain', does not refer to his rank, as this may vary from lieutenant (e.g. minesweeper), lieutenant commander (e.g. conventional submarine), commander (e.g. nuclear submarine), or captain (e.g. aircraft carrier).The second in command is known as the 'First Lieutenant'. On large vessels, where the captain holds the rank of captain, the first lieutenant usually then holds the rank of commander, and is then known as 'the Commander' rather than 'First Lieutenant'.

Yes, in all branches of service. The Navy uses a different structure for officers than the Air Force, Army, and Marines. In the Navy, a Captain is O6, equivalent to a Colonel in the remaining branches. A Navy Lieutenant is O3, equivalent to Captain in the other branches, and a Navy Lieutenant Junior Grade is O2, equivalent to a First Lieutenant in the other branches.
A Lieutenant (Second or First) may be a staff officer, they may command a platoon, they may serve as a company Executive Officer, or, in the case of a First Lieutenant who is eligible for promotion to Captain, they may command a company.
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.
Well, that really depended on their rank and the time period they were in. Generally, the ranking and titles went as follows (from least to most important): Able Seaman Acting Midshipman Midshipman Acting Lieutenant Fourth Lieutenant Third Lieutenant Second Lieutenant First Lieutenant Acting Captain Commander Acting Post Captain Post Captain Admiral Lord Admiral These varied according to time progression.
