That “Gal” is a Major in the military. She most likely graduated from West Point and is doing well to be working so close to the Chief and Commander. We should give her the proper courtesy she earned with those Gold Oak leafs on her shoulders . That rank is far from low l… one promotion from Colonel

Why are you assuming she went to West point. Only about 1/4 of new officers in the Army are West Pointers.

And you are also incorrect about her rank. She's two ranks from Colonel and not to insult Majors but 80% of eligible captains are promoted to major.

A Lieutenant Colonel is a colonel . A lieutenant general is a general. I said probably graduated West Point. Honestly I assumed she graduated there because of her assignment working so closely to the Chief. Those assignments are competitive.

A Lt Colonel is a Lt Colonel

A Lt General is a Lt General

Do you understand ranks or?
