Newly-promoted Lieutenant Colonel Duncan Mackinnon.
A BRITISH Army officer from Spean Bridge has earned a promotion to the position of lieutenant colonel at the ministry of defence in London. Duncan Mackinnon, 37, is currently serving in Kabul on his third tour of duty in Afghanistan and will return later this year to begin his new role as a staff officer at the ministry of defence.
The lieutenant colonel rank is superior to major but subordinate to colonel.
