forcebwithu Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 "He had risen from Private to Colonel in four years." "In 1953, his wartime rank of colonel was made permanent, and on 23 July 1959, Jimmy Stewart was promoted to Brigadier General." "During his military service, Brigadier General James Maitland Stewart was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross with one oak leaf cluster (two awards); the Air Medal with three oak leaf clusters; the Distinguished Service Medal; and the Croix de Guerre avec Palme (France)." Now that is a distinguished military career. RIP Jimmy Stewart 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
