I saw that- and it’s very confusing because it was designated by the Four star insignia. And the difference is General of the Armies vs General of the Army.

Will the Obama memorial show him peering out at his achievements as a boy, from a hut in Kenya?

Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower addressing paratroopers of the
101st Airborne Division before D-Day Normandy
Etiam non princeps sed usque ad genua, Principis Pacis!
Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

FDR wanted those promotions so that the American commanders would have rank equal to their British counterparts, in order to prevent a character like Montgomery from refusing to obey someone like Eisenhower.

A tot version of the "messiah" surrounded by what appear to be frangipani bushes...LOL.
They are a very fragrant flowering shrub or small tree which in Asia is planted around sacred temples. How appropriate. On the other hand, a relative used to grow those things down here in the south. We could never remember the word "frangipani" so we called them d__k trees because that's what their thick stubby branches look like when the frost has zapped off the leaves. Fits Obama, too.

In Australia our frangipani are different
