I am working battalion Staff Duty, our battalion commander is currently having a meeting with quite a few others of the same rank. If the BC leaves before the other lieutenant colonel‘s do I still call the building to attention?

your building, your CO. By virtue of position he outranks every other officer of the same rank in the building, call it.

Yes, because it's the BN CDR. You are calling it for them and not the other Officers. When in doubt, call it.

LTC (Join to see) - I once had this CSM that wanted "At Ease" called...even if there were already Officers in the building. He wanted to make sure everyone knew he was in the building.

Dumb guy question, exactly how many LTCs do you have in the BN? Is it a Headquarters Battalion?
