I remember our supply NCO at HHD/2/11 was SFC General. I had a lot of fun with some of the enlisted and one of the junior officers by informing them that Sergeant General actually outranked the Sergeant Major. I did that for months until the S3 ordered me to stop tormenting and confusing the young lads.
You were not too wrong...Major General was once Sergeant Major General.....taken from the Old Brit system around Cromwells time
