Well since it's a slow nite, I'll spill the beans. It's Lt Colonel's rank actually. Close lalverson! And where would one find a Lt Col in Starfleet!?! . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Starfleet Marines. I don't ever recall seeing a Marine on any movie or series episode; however, if you do a Google search for "Starfleet Marines" THEY'RE OUT THERE! So watch it maggot! :-)
