Confusing
[edit]This part of the 'History' section is a little confusing: "By 1864, the title was changed to "staff captain" and ranked after the regular rank of captain, while masters who had served at least 15 years were given the new rank of "staff commander" and ranked after commander."
The implication is that the latter, 'masters who had served at least 15 years', were SENIOR to those merely holding 'the title', which 'was changed to "staff captain" and ranked after the regular rank of captain', but a naval commander is JUNIOR to a naval captain, per the Royal Navy article.
