During WWII there were two British Marines who went from private to Brigadier General. Enoch Powell was one of them.

J. Enoch Powell made some controversial statements. Whether he was a racist, I don’t know, but he did produce a very good lexicon to Herodotus which I made use of when I was reading Herodotus. As a recall, the English equivalents were sometimes a bit old-fashioned in tone.
