Although in the UK it's pronounced leftenant, the spelling is actually the same - lieutenant - so you don't need to change it anyway.

curiously enough, not all brit forces pronounce lieutenant differently: a lot of army d00ds from certain brigades pronounce it the 'american' way. trust pongos :)

david-p: "...pongos...??"  :P

What "Arm" did you want to use anyway?
Army?
Marines?
Navy?
Air force?

Because they all have different rank structuring :)

Glad to list em if ya like
