In peacetime, a Lieutenant Colonel would have served three years as an Major, between 16 and 22 years in the service, and been reviewed by a Officer Promotion Board. Board review is more difficult, confirming only 70% of eligible candidates. They are the second field officer grade. [1]It is generally the last rank a marine or soldier where they will be in direct command of their soldiers.
