Colonel James Stewart receiving the Croix de Guerre with Palm in 1944. On July 23, 1959, Stewart was promoted to brigadier general, becoming the highest-ranking actor in American military history. [1446 x 1800]
Reagan was commander-in-chief. Rank doesn’t get any higher than that. But Jimmy Stewart was a much better actor.

Stewart flew bombing runs over Europe and would experience PTSD later in life, though it was treated very differently back then. It helped contribute to his work taking on more serious tones in the post-war years. Interesting guy and a great actor.
