The Civil War generals who became President were the 18th, 19th, 20th, and 23rd Presidents:
Ulysses S. Grant (1822-1885)
Rutherford B. Hayes (1822-1893)
James Garfield (1831-1881)
Benjamin Harrison (1833-1901)

Ulysses Grant
was the supreme Union commander by the end of the war. James Garfield was a major general. Rutherford Hayes, Benjamin Harrison, and Chester Arthur all held some type of rank as general in the Union army or a state militia. Arthur held brigadier general rank as quartermaster but was not in a combat unit.
Andrew Johnson also held the rank of brigadier general after Lincoln appointed him military governor of occupied Tennessee. His job was purely administrative. (William McKinley also fought in the Civil War but his highest rank was brevet major.)
