When the Grand Companies were first introduced in 1.x, you couldn't advance past Sergeant Third Class. Updates opened up higher ranks, and future updates will open up higher ranks still.

Dang, you're right (well, mostly. Pvt 3rd class; there is no Pvt 4th class). When I first joined a Grand Company, it was Sgt 3rd class; I forgot I was inactive when Grand Companies were introduced.
