Major General/Rear Admiral (upper half) falls into which category?

• A. Field Grade
• B. General Grade
• C. Senior Grade
• D. Junior Grade

Answer: (B)

The main idea is how officer ranks are grouped by grade. Major General and Rear Admiral (upper half) are two-star general/flag officers, which places them in the General Grade category—the top tier of commissioned officers. Field Grade covers ranks like Major and Colonel (and their navy equivalents up to Captain), which are below the two-star level. The terms Junior Grade or Senior Grade aren’t used here to classify these two-star leaders. So, Major General/Rear Admiral (upper half) belongs in the General Grade.
