>>What rank was Colin Powell?<<

That was before Hegseth.

Exactly. There was one sort of US military, up to July 26, 1948, a different sort of military from that date to September 30, 2025, and a different sort of military from September 30, to now. Powell had the good fortune to serve during that 1948-2025 era.
