Also no admiral has ever served as Commander-in-Chief of the Turkish Armed Forces
The official website of the Swedisd Armed Forces (mil.se) has an english page [1] on Gen. Syrén, where he is presented as "General Håkan Syrén, Supreme Commander of the Swedish Armed Forces" or the "Supreme Commander" for short. This page (also mil.se) mentions him as "The Swedish Supreme Commander, General Håkan Syrén, [...]" and with an acronym as "[...] SC General Håkan Syrén.". Should we totally abandon the Commander-in-Chief-thing or just mention SC as an alternative title? / Storpilot 23:52, 26 February 2006 (UTC)
it would be interesting to know when the rank increased by one star becomming a four-star general rank -- Malin Randstrom ( talk) 07:27, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
I removed this pragraph for the following reasaons;
1. I have found no source verifying that such a discussion has ever taken place. 2. Such a move would fall under the concept of "ministerstyre", which is a no-no. 3. The opscommander (C Insatsledningen) at Headquarters formally leads all operations (under the say-so of the SC) in Sweden in peacetime, from deploying a battalion to Afghanistan to having the Home Guard look for missing children (he does delegate the latter quite heavily). —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hans Engstrom ( talk • contribs) 02:20, 27 April 2009 (UTC)
