I go with Colonel in my Joe-verse. Most special operations forces are typically led by a Colonel and I don't see why the Joe team would be any different. Besides anything above that would probably never be in the field to be with his troops. A perfect example is Charles Beckwith (founder of Delta Force) who went with his troops into Iran to attempt to rescue American hostages over there after their revolution.

in my fan-fic, he was promoted to 3* after the team disbanded in 1994 and was reinstated to command the Joe team at that rank in 1995 after the unit was reformed after the Red Shadows assault on Washington DC. that was in my 'verse where I followed on from the comics.
in my Black Sword series set in 2013 and using a realistic take on Joe, he is a colonel. |

In my Joeverse, Hawk is a newly promoted BG who commands from headquarters. Duke is a CPT as Field Commander, Flint is a CW4, and Stalker is my "First Shirt" which rounds out the chain of command among ground troops.

There are young generals under 40 so Hawk could still be a 2 or 3 star general at 42 years old.You have to remember he was a young colonel which to me says early/mid 30's.

Are there Generals under 40 in modern day? i thought you had to have 20+ years just to be a Colonel. Of course I have no real knowledge....

In my Joe-Verse Hawk is a 3-star and mostly "hands off" as far as field ops go (though he's quite capable of keeping up when he has to). General Flagg Jr. actually is the operational commander for a different group (I use the RoC General Hawk as Flagg). Colonel Courage is the "Chief of Staff" and Duke is a very field-active Command Sergeant Major, but Stalker, Beachhead, Gung-Ho, and Torpedo are effectively "First Sergeants" of different strike-teams that make up the overall Joe team. |

My father in law is a brigadier general. He got his star a couple of months after his 50th birthday. There is no way you can make general by 40. My brother in law is a major at 36 and is just being considered for lt colonel (probably not going to happen till a few more years).
That being said, I have hawk as a one star. There was a joint task force in Iraq that was commanded by a BG that I thought was pretty close to the joes. |

One star since he likes to be in the field with his team.
