just as the wounded Lt. Peck had been replaced by Kerry after the January 29th incident
Somehow I doubt that a Lt was replaced by anyone less than the unit commander....a Commander or LtCommander.
I've figured that it took about 3 years active duty to go to 03 (Lt) from 01 (JG). (To CPT from 2LT in army terms)
Does anyone know Kerry's various rank at any given year of his military service?

You're close but you missed one rank. An Ensign is O1.
A Swift boat OIC was either a Lt. j.g (O2) or Lt. (O3). Kerry would have made O2 sometime before he arrived there for his Swift boat duty.
