In the novel Ender's Game, a child soldier named Ender Wiggin is conscripted into a Battle School for gifted youths. During what Ender believes to be a final exam scenario, he is actually placed in command of a starfleet that proceeds to destroy a menacing alien race, all the while with Ender believing that his command of this fleet is only a simulation. After learning the truth, Ender is told that he has been promoted to Fleet Admiral, and thus holds the rank at an age of no more than twelve years old.
