🔒 Closed 5-star Generals

[Biscoff Frappe]

The five-star rank didn’t exist until 1944, and it was retired in 1981 when Omar Bradley, the final recipient died. The most notable of these five men was former president Dwight D. Eisenhower. George Washington was formerly a five star general, but he was posthumously promoted to a six-star general in 1976.
