I agree. The Fire Nation doesn't seem like the sort of country where a girl would inherit if there was a boy around to do it. I mean, even when Ozai clearly favoured Azula, but he never made her his heir until Zuko was gone. Why? Because Zuko was a boy. That is why I firmly believe that Zuko had (a) daughter(s), because if he'd had a son, that son would've had precedence. So, I do believe Iroh is indeed his grandson. Also, he may have gone into the army with approval from his family, and started off low but was promoted on his own merit. He might be a younger son, they usually go into the military because they haven't got anything to inherit. But I don't think he went in disguised. He probably started off as a lieutenant or something. And it is called the United Forces, which means that Zuko wasn't necessarily in charge of it. As for Tenzin-if they need to represent all four nations on the council, and Tenzin is the only adult airbender (because council members have to be 'benders)...well, you can do the math.
