No. But as President and Commander in Chief, he commands the US military and all five star Generals there are.
Colonels, one-star brigadier generals, two-star major generals, and the only three star lieutenant general, Grant, were all paid the same - $300 per month.
4 star generals are in the US
No six star rank ever existed in the US military.
Not counting George Washington, (since congress had not created the office of General at that time) there have been a total of five (5) US Army Five-Star Generals. George Marshall (1944) Douglas MacArthur (1944) Dwight D Eisenhower (1944) Henry Arnold (1944) (Although he later became an Air Force General) Omar Bradly (1950) NetRaven
In the US Army, US Air Force, and US Marine Corps: Brigadier General (one star) Major General (two star) Lieutenant General (three star) General (four star) General of the Army (five star) If this is not the specific military force you are looking for, see related link "International Encyclopedia of Uniform Insignia Around the World"
There are no current Generals of the Army (five stars). The rank General of the Army is only used in special circumstances to give the United States a military leader equivalent to the rank of Field Marshal used by some militaries. For further information I urge you to see the Center for Military History page linked to under "links."
There were approximately twelve four star generals in the US Army during 1945. However, due to damaged records and other mitigating factors, a precise count on the total number of generals, from one star up, is nearly impossible to come by at this time.

Yes...im looking at one.
The answer is one. George C. Marshall as Army Chief of Staff held four stars at the begining of World War II until 1944 when he was promoted to five star rank.If you wanted to know how many generals held four star rank then it would be more. One man commanded the U.S. Army it was Marshall.
Well the president at the beginning of the war was Franklin Roosevelt. He died a few months into his fourth term as president and was replaced by Harry Truman. If you're looking for military leaders then Dwight Eisenhower, Douglas MacArthur, George Marshall, and Omar Bradley were all five star generals for the army. In the navy Chester Nimitz and a few others were all five star admirals.
