And a psychiatrist. I heard mention from someone on another forum that all doctors in the Army start their ranks from Captain, though how true this is I don't know. Also consider that he'd been serving in the army for I think 12 years so if both of those are true he's not seen a massive amount of advancement. Not that I disagree that the army should be keeping better tabs on it's troops mental health but I don't think his rank has the same sort of relevance as if he were a commanding officer rather than a medically based individual. Saying that I've no real knowledge of the military ranking system and especially not the American one.
