The following is an incomplete list of Australian Army brigadiers and other senior Australian Army officers. (There is a separate list of Australian Army generals.) The senior Australian Army ranks are: :Senior Officer: brigadier. :General: brigadier general, major general, lieutenant general, general. :Marshal: field marshal. An Australian Army brigadier is ''not'' classed as a "general", whereas an Australian Army brigadier general was.〔The (Cadet Instructor's Handbook 2006 ) section 1.26 on the 11th of the 104 pages says: :1.25 At the end of World War I the British Government told the British Army that it had too many generals and that they were to be reduced in numbers. The Army did just that; it removed the word 'general' and was left with fewer generals and, at the same time, had created a 'new' rank. :1.26 The rank of brigadier general was abolished in the Australian Army in 1921, and it was eventually replaced by that of brigadier in 1929. In the interim titles such as 'colonel-in-command', 'colonel-of-staff' and 'colonel-commandant' were used for officers posted into that level of command. Chris Jobson's ''Looking Forward, Looking Back: Customs and Traditions of the Australian Army'', page 14, says much the same.〕 The British Army replaced the rank of brigadier general with colonel-commandant in 1922, and then with brigadier in 1928. The rank insignia was changed from crossed sabre and baton to crown with three stars ("pips") to reflect that a brigadier is a senior colonel rather than a junior general.〔 The rank of brigadier general was abolished in the Australian Army in 1921, and it was eventually replaced by that of brigadier in 1929.
