Their respective dates of rank (DOR) are also included. For all practical purposes, a GA was equivalent in rank to a Branch Marshal.

Merkulov – DOR: 9 JUL 45 I. Ye Petrov – DOR: 9 OCT 43/26 OCT 44. (N.B. His two dates of rank to GA reflect his demotion to Col Gen (DOR: 4 FEB 44) and subsequent repeat promotion to GA) M. M.
