Talk:General of the Armies

Not enough info
I believe General Ulysses S. Grant became a 6 star general/general of the armies after his 200th birthday. If this is incorrect, please notify me. 24.52.31.237 (talk) 13:03, 15 April 2023 (UTC)

Six star general drawings
The six-star general drawings which used to be on this article were not fakes. I see they were deleted with a long talk about how they were concocted, drawn on a computer what have you. The drawings were from the Army from around 1965, you could tell with the weathered and yellowed look that those were actual documents. That should really be fixed as its a disservice to this article not to speak about the insignia debate that happened in the 60s where the Army actually did design a valid 6-star design. Here is a link to what the drawings looked like, not the drawings themselves -  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.44.165.50 (talk) 10:58, 6 May 2023 (UTC)


 * @130.44.165.50 - An image from eBay is not considered a WP:Reliable and WP:Verifiabile source. WP:Unpublished sources can also not be used. The Army would need to make the images readily accessible before they can be added to this article. Neovu79 (talk) 21:57, 6 May 2023 (UTC)

Ulysses S Grant

 * In December 2022, Congress authorized the president to posthumously appoint Ulysses S. Grant to the rank

Has he done so? Marnanel (talk) 15:42, 11 November 2023 (UTC)
