Ironwood was probably a specialist who rose to become the head of the army at which point he may have also been appointed headmaster of atlas due to his capabilities. So it's a matter of technicality. Since he's a specialist who worked his way to headmaster, but ALSO has a rank in the military and worked his way to general, he now has 2 seats on the council due to a technicality in their constitution.
