Should 'fourth star" below be corrected to "four star"?
Though General Sanchez remained on active duty after leaving Iraq in 2004, he never received a fourth star, in part because, though he was popular with Mr. Rumsfeld, the Bush administration feared that his nomination hearings in the Senate would turn into a bitter partisan fight and a public replay of the details of the Abu Ghraib scandal. _________________ Hiromichi |

No. It is right as it is. His fourth star would make him a full general:
One star: brigadier general
Two stars: major general
Three stars: lieutenant general
Four stars: general / full general
Five stars: general of the Army _________________ You live a new life for every new language you speak. -Czech proverb |
