Names

The names would fit better without the middle initials on each name. Are they really necessary? Rmhermen (talk) 03:04, 1 May 2008 (UTC) What about Benjamin Davis Sr., the first African American promoted to a 4 star general? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 55.124.4.90 (talk) 18:11, 3 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Benjamin O. Davis Sr. was the first African American general officer in the Army, achieving the rank of brigadier general. He retired in 1948 at that rank. This list is a list of Army officers that have achieved four-star rank. Davis Sr. never achieved that rank. His son, Davis Jr. however, did achieve four-star rank in the United States Air Force.

General Jacob E. Smart achieved the rank of general while he was serving in the United States Air Force and not while he was serving in the United States Army. He is listed in the List of United States Air Force four-star generals. Neovu79 (talk) 03:04, 28 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Typo

@Neovu79: Could you take a look at what happened here? I know there aren't 49333 ROTC generals but I don't know what else might need to be fixed. Best, KevinL (aka L235 · t · c) 05:42, 19 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
