Which insignia corresponds to General (O-10)?

Which insignia corresponds to General (O-10)?

• A. Four Silver Stars
• B. Three Silver Stars
• C. Silver Eagle
• D. One Silver Star

Answer: (A)

Four silver stars indicate the rank of General (O-10). In the Marine Corps, the number of stars on the insignia shows general officer grade: one star for Brigadier General (O-7), three stars for Lieutenant General (O-9), and four stars for General (O-10). A silver eagle marks the rank of Colonel (O-6) instead of stars. So four silver stars is the correct insignia for General.
