Editing Lieutenant (section)

====Army rank====
Conventionally, armies and other services or branches that use army-style rank titles have two grades of lieutenant, but a few also use a third, more junior, rank. Historically, the "lieutenant" was the deputy to a "captain", and as the rank structure of armies began to formalise, this came to mean that a [[Captain (Land)|captain]] commanded a [[company (military unit)|company]] and had several lieutenants, each commanding a [[platoon]]. Where more junior officers were employed as deputies to the lieutenant, they went by many names, including second lieutenant, sub-lieutenant, [[Ensign (rank)|ensign]] and [[Cornet (military rank)|cornet]]. Some parts of the [[British Army]], including the [[Royal Artillery]], [[Royal Engineers]] and [[fusilier]] [[regiment]]s, used first lieutenant as well as second lieutenant until the end of the 19th century, and some British Army regiments still preserve cornet as an official alternative to second lieutenant.

There is great variation in the insignia used worldwide. In most English-speaking and Arabic-speaking countries, as well as a number of European and South American nations, full lieutenants (and equivalents) usually wear two stars (pips) and second lieutenants (and equivalents) one. An example of an exception is the United States, whose armed forces distinguish their lieutenant ranks with a silver bar for first lieutenant and a gold bar for second lieutenant.
