General of the Armies

In the United States Army military hierarchy, General of the Armies is traditionally considered a rank superior to a five-star general, also known as "General of the Army" (note the difference between the two ranks). The full title of the military rank is "General of the Armies of the United States." The only people in history to hold the title General of the Armies were John J. Pershing and George Washington.
