I,ve just noticed that I am now a Major General, so drinks are on me at the officers club this evening :). Full dress uniform required ;)

A fine rank for a fine officer, sir! Now say something about a necessary new range.

Congrats, Steve.

Had to go find a thread I'd posted in (not difficult!) to see what rank I was.

Apparently I'm now a Brigadier. Assuming that kicks in at 1500 I've been a Brigadier for a week or three, without realising.

So, G&T Major General? Don't mind if I do!

To be fair, "A Bloody War or a Sickly Season" is the RN version and since the ranks here are Army your version is probably more appropriate.
