''Feldmarschall-Leutnant'' (in English: ''Field marshal lieutenant''), short ''FML'' (historically also ''Feldmarschall-Lieutenant'', or ''Feldmarschallleutnant'', however as to official terms from 1867 by the Austrian military administration always ''Feldmarschalleutnant'') was a distinguished military rank. It was introduced contemporary with the Field Marshal ((ドイツ語:Feldmarschall)) rank in the 17th century. In German speaking countries the imperator usually appointed a ''Submashal'' or ''Lieutenant'' for the support of the field marshal. In this function as the personal deputy to the field marshal he was, among others, in charge of supervision, inspection and control of supply, storage, streets and guards. == Development == The rank was already in use by the Imperial Army of the Holy Roman Empire from the 17th century until 1806. It was introduced as well to the Army of the Austrian Empire 1804–1866, and the Austro-Hungarian Army 1867–1918. The sequence of general ranks was as follows. *Feldmarschall (Field Marshal) *Generaloberst, introduced in 1915 (Colonel General) *General der Infanterie, General der Kavallerie, and Feldzeugmeister (General of the infantry, General of the cavalry, and General of the artillery) *Felmarschall-Leutnant (Field marshal lieutenant), ((ハンガリー語:Altábornagy)) *Generalmajor (Major General) At that time ''Field marshal lieutenant'' of the k.u.k. Army was equivalent to the ''Generalleutnant'' (Lieutenant general) of the Prussian Army (today comparable to an OF7, two-star rank). The normal assignment of ''Field marshal lieutenant'' was the commanding officer of a division-sized military formation. It was addressed in the honorific style Excellency. In Austria the rank was used continuously after 1918 by the commander-in-chief (FML Adolf von Boog) of the so-called ''Volkswehr'' (People´s defence) until 1919. However, the Bundesheer of the First Republic adopted the designation, structure and sequence of the German ranks in 1920. Following the national tradition, in 1933 the Austrian ranks, insignia and uniforms were reintroduced, including ''Field marshal lieutenant'' rank. The ranks remained in use until the ''Anschluss'' in 1938. The equivalent rank to ''Field marshal lieutenant'' in the Hungarian Army became the rank ''Altábornagy''. Today it is still in use as NATO-equivalent OF-8 two-star rank corresponding to lieutenant general in English-speaking armed forces. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Feldmarschall-Leutnant」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
