It's dificult to make a comparison between roman army register and actual ones.
Probably a Centurio it's closer to an oficial and optio to a sergeant. But centuriones were not all of the same category.
We cannot compare a Primus Pilus with a colonel, general, etc. Because apart from his range, he has the direct control on his centuria. He is as if today in day a colonel, general, etc, was acting simultaneously of lieutenant of a section.
Do not be if I have clarified anything, or even I have impeded it, more...
