Lieutenant General
Lieutenant General is a military rank used in almost every country in the world. The rank traces its origins to the Middle Ages where the title of Lieutenant General was held by the second in command on the battlefield, normally subordinate to a Captain General.
Israel
In the Israeli army the Lieutenant General is the highest rank, as General and Major General are in most other countries. Mainly it is because of the lower number of soldiers in the Israeli army (thus demanding a smaller hierarchy).
