Talk:Second lieutenant

message: The article reads, "As a result of the gold color of the bars, second lieutenants are often colloquially referred to as Butterbars, Nuggets, Commissioned Privates, or 2nd Luey."  However, I assume this is incorrect.  Their nicknames of "Commissioned Privates" as well as "2nd Luey" are not as a result of the gold colour of the bars.  As such, I submit that the article should be changed to read, "As a result of the gold color of the bars, second lieutenants are often colloquially referred to as Butterbars or Nuggets, but have also been called Commissioned Privates or 2nd Luey."

message: There may also be need to make a more spefic reference to the German use of the word "Leutnant" as it appears many users, and editors correct the spelling of the correct "Leutnant" on German biographical entries, for the American Rank, and English word, Lieutenant.

Turkey: Asteğmen is wrong. Second Lieutenant is Teğmen.

message: Added a commentary on the Norwegian rank - seeing how this rank differs very much in function in the Norwegian Army compared to other armies. I don't know of any other army where this is the practice.

message: Can anyone tell me why there is this article and then there is this article entitled Sub-lieutenant?  They appear to be the same rank and have same the NATO code. The only difference is this uses an American term and the latter, a British English one.86.157.48.253 (talk) 22:09, 19 March 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: The difference is not between American or British  respectively, second lieutenant is an army/airforce rank, sub-lieutenant (US: lieutenant j.g. or ensign) is the naval equivalent.--Bungert55 (talk) 09:00, 24 March 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  difference? 

message: I removed the table from the Israel section because:
*It dealt with three ranks rather only Second lieutenant.
*It did not treat army and navy equivalents
*It gave undue presence to a relatively small armed service
