General

General (GEN, Gen) denotes the most senior general-grade officer that is the highest achievable commissioned officer rank (or echelon) that may be attained in the Orion Nero Initiative Armed Forces, with the exception being of the Sky Legion (with the equivalent being Sky Marshal). The insignia for General is its four golden five-clover leaves arranged in a vertical row.

The rank of General ranks above the Lieutenant General, and is comparable to the rank of OF-9 in other armed forces. Apart from the Sky Marshal in the Sky Legion, the rank of General is equivalent to the Field Marshal in the Alvitr Central Security Ground Force, and the Director in the Atlanta Federation. There is only one General within the entire ONI Armed Ground Force, and oversees all military conventions relating to the ONI Ground Force.

Generals are nominated by the President from any eligible officers holding the rank of Major General or above who meet the requirements for the position, with the advice of the Secretary of Defence, service secretary, and if applicable, the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The nominee must be confirmed by the ONI Council before the appointee can assume the rank.
