Commanded the Nore station in 1943 onwards. 5. Second-in-command of Mediterranean Fleet at outbreak of war. I tried to keep the revealing clues out, so it should be a little more challenging...
1.)In September 1932, he was promoted to Flag Rank 2.)From late 1942 to early 1943, he served under General Eisenhower 3.) Issued First Bar to the Distinguished Service Order in February 1919. May it be Sir Andrew Cunningham?
1. Was educated at Durnford Preparatory School 2. Was vice admiral of the Light Forces and Second-in-Command of the Mediterranean Fleet when Italy declared war in 1940. 3. Sank the Bismark 1st Baron John Tovey?
here's a new one 1. In January 1916, was accepted into the Royal Flying Corps. 2. Was briefly deployed to Turkey in 1922/3 during the Chanak Crisis. 3. Was appointed as Air Officer Commander in Chief, RAF Middle East Command in June 1941. 4. Was knighted in 1942. 5. In 1950 he became Chancellor of the University of Cambridge.
1. In 1936 was appointed Air Commanding Officer of RAF Far Eastern Forces. 2. Was Chief of Air Staff from 1946 to 1950. 3. Died of Parkinson's Disease in 1967 Marshal of the Royal Air Force: Arthur W. Tedder

Received Distinguished Service Order, Victoria Cross, Croix de Guerre, and was Knight Commander of the Order of Bath by the end of World War II. 5. Killed by one of his war wounds at Windsor on 4 July 1963. Should be quite hard, I intentionally left out the more obvious facts. He is, however, quite famous. Have fun
i think i have it 1. From 1921 to 1925 he was a staff officer in the headquarters of the 44th Division. 2. Was injured in an aircraft accident in September 1944. 3. Served as Governor-General of New Zealand from 1946 until 1952. Bernard Freyberg aka 1st Baron Freyberg?
darn it, that went fast. I tried to insert the Royal navy to throw people off, and even completely left out New Zealand. Great job General Patton. Your turn
lol, thank you, but to be honost, i have never really heard of any of these guys before... i just randomly look up their information on the web hoping that i will find something about them on the web... and i will post another person after i get back home from school today... i dont have enough time this morning to look for a good one right now
well then, i hope your learning, and not just answering the questions. I should throw in a repeat to see if I can catch u off guard.
lol, believe me, i am learning a lot from this, seeing as WW2 is my favorite topic to learn about, how could i not learn from this and i think i have another person... i found him in one of my books 1.

number 4 gave it away right away 1. Tally of five destroyed and 14 out of control in World War I 2. Was Air Vice Marshal at the start of the Battle of Britain 3. Had a personalized Hawker Hurricane Keith Park
lol, yep, nice one... i had to throw one in there that would have been kind of helpful... thats why i didnt put anything about Malta in there because i thought that would have given it right away too
Vague clues: Have fun. 1. General in World War I. 2. Politician career in between and after the World Wars. 3. Commanded in the Mediterranean theater. 4. Did not have high opinion of his own country's military capability. 5. Birthplace is now named after him.
