The two Hungarian Generals of 1848 who most likely fit the bill are
Jozef
Bem, actually a Pole, who led Honved troops throughout the Revolution,
drove
the Austrians out of Transylvania, defeated the Russians several times,
and
was eventually nominated by Kossuth to be the Commander in Chief of the
Honved, and Artur Gorgei, who defeated the main Austrian army and
relieved
Komorn fortress, and I think was responsible for recapturing Pest in
1849.

Both sound like good possibilities for SOME kind of capital ships.
Ákos, could you ask those same 'experts' as to the relative respect
with
which each is held? Alas, in spite of some college work many decades
ago,
my knowledge of central European history is not merely woefully
inadequate,
it's simply woeful.
