Dear Washington Post

Lieutenant Colonel and Colonel are not the same rank.

Article

The race for Virginia’s 7th Congressional District features a pair of county supervisors, two state lawmakers, a self-funded tech entrepreneur and veterans of most branches of the military — including a Navy SEAL, two Green Berets and a retired Army colonel who played a key role in Trump-era Washington.

 Maybe they don't know that there's such a thing as a Lieutenant Colonel?

The others seeking the GOP nomination are Marine Corps veteran Jon Myers; John Prabhudoss, former chair of the Federation of Indian American Christian Organizations; retired Army Lt. Col. Jeffrey Sacks; and Terris Todd, a former Heritage Foundation adviser and Trump appointee in the Department of Education.

Funny how mistakes like this only happen in one direction.
