Second Lieutenant
This is a common noun, and should not be capitalized. Yes, it would be capitalized when used as a title, as would president or any other noun, just as it would be if it appeared at the start of a sentence. We do not have capitalized entries for words that are only sometimes capitlaized like this. --EncycloPetey 02:53, 28 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Another editor gave me conflicting information regarding what words or word forms qualify an entry and how those entries relate. I am trying to sort out that contradiction. Please clarify your position. Powerboater 00:09, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
 * FYI, EP, it's at my talkpage.—msh210 ℠ 02:49, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
