Because he rose to the rank of major through skill rather then family pretige. Ghunner was born from a rich background, but Yacobi and Fitzalberg weren't. However, Yacobis more of a coward, as evident when he joins the chaos forces. I have never played DOW, but konw about the storyline by the way :P
