So I have questions regarding the Confederate ranks in apearance, notice how Joseph E Johnston has what look's like what I thought to be a major General rank but he was in command of what would become the Army of Northern Virginia and then Jackson has what looks like the official major general ranks on but I do know he became a Lt. General later on along with Longstreet. Then you see Forrest with what looks like Major general ranks but he was also a Lt. General eventually but the ranks look like major general and then Lee here has the 3 stars that look similiar enough to those of the Colonel on the far right so basically I'm trying to rap my head around the ranks in how the look and Iv'e seen online charts but it looks like they say Jackson's and Forrest's ranks were Major General and then I don't even know what Johnston's were supposed to be being early war and all. I wanted some clarification because this has me all confused.
