| Of course it's not. Once upon a time quite long ago kings and generals got on the field. But as we industrialized leadership moved to "the back." See concepts like Auftragstaktik, command intent, mission command. |

I still know of nobles in my own country in the army. Generals died in WW2 at a decent rate as well. Nobility lost most relevance now so I'm sure it's different now, owning a castle or a weird last name doesn't make you rich or powerful. |
