 Generally known as a //Lieutenant//, their rank is indicated by two bars.  If there is more than one Lieutenant in a unit they are known 1st Lt, 2nd Lt, 3rd Lt etc in order of seniority.   Like Senior Sergeants, Lieutenants might serve as officers in large units, or be assigned a semi-independent role, perhaps in command of a fort, or acting as the military commander for a small holding, under the command of a senior officer or PC.
-A Lieutenant can command three sergeants and their troops (about 30 people all together). A Ship's Officer might take control of a landing party, command a captured vessel on the trip back to port, or take a watch on a larger ship.  On land a lieutenant might be in charge of the castle's Barbican, an Outpost, a town district or even just one watch.   They can meet limited objectives (such as patrol rosters, and unit management) without direct supervision.
