Brigadier General

A Brigadier General is a senior military officer rank, typically in the army, air force, or marines. It is just above the rank of Colonel and below Major General. A Brigadier General often commands a brigade, which is a large military unit made up of several battalions and can consist of around 3,000 to 5,000 soldiers. This role involves significant leadership responsibilities, strategic planning, and operational decision-making. Brigadier Generals play a crucial part in organizing and directing military operations, training, and ensuring the readiness of their units for deployment or combat.
