In the US Military, a General usually must have a minimum Time in Service (TIS), although not always; demonstrate a well-rounded level of successful commanding units of various sizes, attended all expected military schools and training courses, be college educated , and then must be recommended by the President and approved by the Senate of the United States Congress.
