Jenderal besar Jenderal besar , translated literally as " great general " , is the highest rank of the Army of Indonesia . It is the equivalent of a general of the army , and is used to translate that rank into Indonesian .

The insignia for " jenderal besar " is five golden stars arranged in a pentagon formation . Thus , the insignia is very similar to the United States Army rank of general of the army .
