It:s a good question. Captain was the highest military rank in the Middle Ages, Generals and general staffs were not possible. a Major may have been around as a Major Domo was an internal head of security at a palace and the words Mayor ( c ity official) and Major ( military rank 0-4) have a common root. ( it has been argued that Colonel has two origins- officer in charge of a Colony - or and this would also tie in with the pronunciation ( Kerrnell)- a Crown Prince of military rank- Coronel was the Germanic spelling. It is probable she was a Field Captain or something lilke that. at her time there were not ranks above Captain, and the style of battle employed did not lend itself to precise rank designations-or tactical formations- once in action- any by the numbers stuff was reduced to exigiencies of combat. the Nobiliary ranks of Baron, Viscount, Count, etc had some effect similar to commisisoned ranks in the Army- a Baron or Baroness would be in charge of several units of knights an be approximately a lieutenant. Baron is the lowest rank of the higher nobility- above mere Knight. she may have been unofficially Baroness of Rheims- and the Mayor of the city- along with King Charles, may have given her this honor- as Rheims was her major victory.
