[Power Rangers] Do the Government created rangers (Lightspeed Rescue, RPM, Beast Morphers) have any legal military rank and power?

More than likely, yes.

Lightspeed Rescue are a military organization so they probably have a certain rank to order around the rank-and-file in order to organize any rescue efforts. But they were recruited from *civilians* for their specific skills. In order;

* Carter Greyson, the Red Ranger, was a firefighter in the Mariner Bay Fire Department
* Chad Lee, the Blue Ranger, is a local Life Guard and marine animal trainer in the Mariner Bay Aquarium and Amusement Park
* Joel Rawlings, the Green Ranger, was a stunt pilot
* Kelsey Winslow, the Yellow Ranger, was an extreme sports athlete
* Dana Mitchell, the Pink Ranger, was a nurse and practiced medical arts (she also got something of a pass since her father was the commander of Lightspeed Rescue).

Out of those, three have direct skills in crisis and emergencies while the other two were recruited for their skills in the general Ranger skillset of vehicular expertise and combat. They'd probably have been given "Honorary" military titles to make their jobs easier or had the authority of the head of Lightspeed Rescue who was a military captain.

But with RPM, it's slightly different. RPM are police officers first and foremost and are focused with arresting suspects and bringing them in for trial. Probably not military unless those two groups have been merged together.
