Some of the guys I drill with were wondering about his CAB (Combat Action Badge) as combat badges are not generally awarded to General officers.

So, you and the guys you drill with think he was always a general? You think he might have earned it before he got his first star? WTF.

The CAB has only been awarded for the last 2 or 3 years. Long after Petraeus made general.
