Can anyone tell me what W/Lieutenant means ? The answer is probably quite obvious, but my brain is not working at the moment! Thanks
Hi, You often also see it written as WS/Lieutenant - it means War Substantive Lieutenant - an important matter for a regular army officer as he/she would not be demoted below that point in the post war deomobilisation. I've seen officers described as A(Acting)Lt. Colonel/T(Temporary) Major/WS/Lieutenant! Steve Y
