USMA Class of 1806: Louis Loramier-- Part 2: Commissioned an Ensign?

In the last post, I mentioned that Louis Loramier was commissioned as an ensign in the U.S. Army.  I had always believed that the rank of ensign was one more associated with the Navy.  He later did get a commission as a second lieutenant before resigning three years later in 1809 to become a farmer.

I'll have to find out more information about the ensign thing.
