	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/01/2020 answer text <p>There are 29 command appointments at one-star level and above within the Royal Navy, 42 within the Army, 18 within the Royal Air Force and 26 within Strategic Command. The table below shows a breakdown by role although for security reasons two Strategic Command posts are not included.</p><p> </p><p>While broadly similar, the three services and Strategic Command use slightly different criteria for 'command appointments' because of their structural differences. Senior service officers also hold command appointments in roles outside of their service, for example in NATO. There are also non-command appointments at one-star level and above, both within and external to the single services.</p><p> </p><p><strong>Table 1: Command appointments at one-star level and above for the Army, Navy, Royal Air Force and Strategic Command </strong></p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p><strong>4 Star Command Appointments</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Service</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>First Sea Lord</p></td><td><p>RN</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Chief of the General Staff</p></td><td><p>Army</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Chief of the Air Staff</p></td><td><p>RAF</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Commander UK Strategic Command</p></td><td><p>Strat Com</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>3 Star Command Appointments</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Second Sea Lord</p></td><td><p>RN</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Fleet Commander</p></td><td><p>RN</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Commander Field Army</p></td><td><p>Army</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Commander Home Command</p></td><td><p>Army</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Deputy Commander Operations/ Air Member Operations</p></td><td><p>RAF</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Chief Joint Operations</p></td><td><p>Strat Com</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Director General Joint Force Development</p></td><td><p>Strat Com</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Director General Defence Medical Services</p></td><td><p>Strat Com</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>2 Star Command Appointments</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Commander Operations</p></td><td><p>RN</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Commander UK Strike Force / Rear Admiral Surface Ships</p></td><td><p>RN</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Assistant Chief of the Naval Staff (Capability)</p></td><td><p>RN</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Flag Officer Sea Training &amp;
