Adrian Carton De Wiart
The guy who held the rank of Lieutenant-General Sir Adrian Carton de Wiart was a courageous one who never gave up. Even though he was born with just one eye and one hand, he proved to be a true soldier throughout his whole life. Over the course of his six decades on earth, he participated in three major wars. However, an accident he sustained while serving his nation in the Boer War, World War I, and World War II caused him to lose his left eye.

Additionally, Carton de Wiart had extremely serious injuries on eight separate occasions. In addition to this, he suffered vision loss in his left eye, survived two separate aircraft accidents, and broke out of a prisoner of war camp. The fact that all of these things occurred to him while he was serving in the First World War is the most incredible thing about it. One can only speculate as to the challenges he encountered throughout the other battles he participated in.
