Are you Ready for Combat!!!!!GDFL Unveils the the official Battle Star Helmets.Miniature helmets Coming soon to pre-order pls send contact info to info@gdfl.org The Battle Star Helmet Award, will be designated for the absolute best player in our League!!! Who will wear the Helmet of the Future!!!!! What does it mean to have this award there is only one way to define it!!! The rank of General of the Armies is considered senior to General of the Army, and has been bestowed on only two officers in history, John J. Pershing, in 1919 for his services in World War I, and George Washington for his service as the first Commanding General of the United States Army. When the five-star rank of General of the Army was introduced, it was decided that General Pershing (still living at the time) would be superior to all the newly-appointed Generals of the Army. Then-Secretary of War Henry L. Stimson was asked whether Pershing was therefore a five-star general (at that time the highest rank was a four-star general).This rank is today commemorated on the signs denoting Interstate Highways as part of the Eisenhower Interstate System, which display five silver stars on a light blue background. The GDFL feels this Award paves the way of a true leader both on and off the field and will inspire others to strive to be the Very Best in life. we also feel this award is a tribute to all service members who allow us to play the Game we Love!!!!
