By Rank, twelve, and they were: * Washington, General of the Armies of the US. (Six Stars) * Eisenhower, General of the Army. (Five Stars) * Grant, General, (Four Stars) * Jackson, Major General, (Two Stars) * Harrison, William, Major General, (Two Stars) * Taylor, Major General, (Two Stars) * Hayes, Major General, (Two Stars, Temporary Rank) * Harrison, Benjamin, Major General, (Two Stars, Temporary Rank) * Pierce, Brigadier General, (One Star) * Johnson, Andrew, Brigadier General, (One Star) * Garfield, Brigadier General, (One Star) * Arthur, Quartermaster General, (One Star) The highest ranking Naval Officer was Lyndon Johnson who held the rank of Commander. The only President that entered military service and failed to advance to Officer status was James Buchanan who saw service as a Private during the War of 1812.
The first man named General of the Army of the United States was Ulysses S. Grant, on July 25th, 1866, by authority of the Congress. At that time, however, the insignia of the rank was not five stars (as it was in 1944) but four, such as are worn today by a full general (or just "general").When Grant became president, he was replaced as General of the Army by William Tecumseh Sherman, who changed the insignia to two stars with the U.S. eagle in between.The last man to hold the title General of the Army until 1944 was Philip H. Sheridan. The rank was retired on the death of Sheridan and thereafter for many years the highest ranking general officers in the army were major generals (two stars).The rank of General of the Army of the United States was reinstated in 1944, primarily because at the time our highest ranking 4-star generals were outranked by Field Marshals of other armies. It was awkward for Dwight Eisenhower as Supreme Commander of the Allied Forces in Europe to be technically outranked by some of his subordinates, so he was given a 5th star, making him equivalent to a Field Marshal. So were General Marshall and General MacArthur, and General "Hap" Arnold of the U.S. Army Air Forces.
