If the Chapter is older the hero belonged to an earlier equivalent position, for instance a Vanguard Sergeant equivalent lead an elite Recon formation in an appropriate Company and Lieutenants either existed before Guilliman's reform (like Black Templars Castellans -not to be confused with fortification leader Castellan in the table- and Space Wolves Wolf Guard Battle Leaders) or were the senior most Sergeant in their Company and heir of the Captain at the time.
