The question doesn't provide enough clues to help find an answer, but

rather than change the question to fit one of the thousands that have

achieved that rank lets name a few of the unusual.

John Glenn who became an astronaut, the oldest man in space and a US Senator,

Chesty Puller who won five Navy Crosses.

Or one of the best.

Archibald Henderson, the fifth Commandant of the Marine Corps who took

that office in 1820 at the age of 37 and held it for 38 years while he

served at the pleasure of nine different Presidents. He posted a note on

his door in 1836 to explain his absence. It simply said "Gone to fight

Indians."
