Thomas Blamey was an Australian General in the First and Second World Wars. He was also the first and only Australian to become a Field Marshall. He was born on January 24th 1884 in Wagga Wagga NSW. During the first world war he participated in the landing at Gallipoli on the 25th of April 1915 and served as a staff officer in the Gallipoli Campaign. Blamey later served on the Western front, where he distinguished himself in the planning of the battle of Pozieres.

That's not all of what he did, only a brief description. Check Wikipedia!
