Italian to English

Could anyone tell me what the initials T.V. and C.P. stand for before a naval commander's name in Italian (or French), and the English translation? In the context of a ship's registration in an administrative office.
Thank you very much!

T.V. = tenente di vascello
Il grado di tenente di vascello (T.V.) è il quarto grado degli ufficiali inferiori della Marina Militare che corrisponde a quello di capitano dell'Esercito e dell'Aeronautica Militare; questo grado è superiore a quello di sottotenente di vascello ed inferiore a quello di capitano di corvetta.
Tenente di Vascello = Lieutenant
The senior grade of Lieutenant is known as First Lieutenant in the United States, and as Lieutenant in the United Kingdom and the rest of the English-speaking world. In countries which do not speak English, the rank title usually translates as "Lieutenant", but may also translate as "First Lieutenant" or "Senior Lieutenant".
