Too many Generals here.

 

I have been around for a long time just checking in because I had to sell my collection a few years ago. this time I am back with a vengence and doing things differently. I am starting from the top.

 

 

Well I hope too.

I am inches away from confirming my ability to get that Bat 1 in January.

I ask all of you to pray for me in whatever form you choose.

One of my favorite movies of all time!

[FlyingDonut]

Eisenhower

Bradley

Marshall

MacArthur

Arnold (Never heard of this guy)

 

and you forgot George Washington!

action1kid already named the 5-star generals. I said 5-star admirals. You know, the navy guys?

 

Hap Arnold was the head of the Army Air Corps (which became the Air Force) during WWII.

 

Basically, the rule to becoming a 5-star general is you have to fight a world war. So I guess it's just as well we haven't had any 5-star generals in a while.

 

Navy 5-star Admirals:

Admiral William D. Leahy

Admiral Ernest J. King

Admiral Chester Nimitz

Admiral William F. "Bull" Halsey

 

BTW, George Washington is a "six-star" General - by an act of Congress in 1976, Washington was granted "precedence over all other grades of the Army, past and present."

Ahem.

All the 5 stars I remember were Eisenhower, Bradley and MacArthur.
