The last line of your message is confusing...
I believe the eagle was just an emblem and had
nothing to do with rank. In the U.S. Armed Forces, the eagle
emblem on the headgear only designates "enlisted" or "officer"
the enlisted has a circle around the eagle, the officer's emblem has a
bigger eagle without the circle.
I am no expert, but the CP could designate the
unit to which he belonged, not the rank...Keep on digging, Iam sure somebody
will come up with an answer.
Good luck.

Subject: [ranchos] militar insignia
regarding my photos
ok, in the original picture (I should do this in the first
place)the
militar sitting has three bars in the hat and so on the
shoulders; the
other, with an eagle badge has two capital letters on the
collar C and
P. In the site
href="http://www.en.wikipedia.org">www.en.wikipedia.org I found for the
mexican army that
three bars mean Capitan Segundo (Senior Captain)and
three bars with
the one in the middle been shorter means Capitan Primero
(Captain) so
I have know why the eagle on the chest and CP on the collar.
