Incredibly poor media 'reporting' on Afghanistan casualties

Australian soldier killed in Afghanistan | The Australian

CHIEF of the Defence Force air chief marshal Angus Houston has confirmed a member of the 1st Mentoring Task Force has been killed.

Mr Houston said the soldier was killed by an improvised explosives device in Afghanistan just before midnight (AEST) last night.
Am I the only one to be a little miffed to see the Australian CDF referred to as "Mr" Houston and his rank ("air chief marshal Angus Houston) appearing in small case?
