0007572: Discrepancies between 'm'ilitary menu and 'v'iew menu when replacing squad members (leaders only?)
Changing positions in the military screen will not change dwarves military status if you look at them individually. This has led to some screwy behavior, such as multiple militia captains or people not appearing for assignment on the military screen. It may or may not have been responsible for a crash once.
Assign dwarves via profession side menu and change their positions/assignments in the military screen or vice versa.
No tags attached.

Got a little confused here. I don't know what I was talking about 'p'rofession tab. that doesn't exist. I meant when you look at your dudes with 'v'iew.

I was able to reproduce this by
* Assigning a single dwarf to the first position of the first squad
* Waiting for the dwarf to become a soldier
* Replacing the dwarf with another dwarf
The first dwarf becomes a civilian and the second becomes a soldier, then becomes a civilian shortly after and vanishes from the [m]ilitary screen entirely, but is still listed as a squad member in the [v]-[p] menu.

Reminder sent to: fordo

Does this occur only with squad leaders? If so, it's probably 0007452.

I'll attribute this to 0007452, but please reopen this and/or send me a PM on the forums if it's reproducible with other squad members.
