Answer 2

I can't name any British general but I'm sure there are.
The higest American general killed in battle was general McNair (killed by american bombs that fell too short at the start of operation Cobra in Normandy).

Another general was Major General Maurice Rose.
See text herunder from wickipedia
"On March 31, the commander of the division, Major General Maurice Rose, famed as one of few Commanding Generals to frequent the front lines during combat, rounded a corner in his jeep and found himself face to face with a German Tank. As he withdrew his pistol to surrender, the young German tank commander, apparently misunderstanding Rose's intentions, shot the General."

Not enough. None. It's the 'cannon fodder' that has to die. The people who start Wars and are in charge of Wars haven't been putting themselves in the line of fire for centuries now. If they did they would think twice about War.
