[ as form of address ] Yes, Field Marshal.
Field Marshal Davies/George Davies
We saw glimpses of the gentle, persuasive charms of the poet, but we also saw the driving determination of the field marshal.

But he rather spoilt it by, shortly after we left together, being created field marshal in his national army.
When a field marshal is earning 10 times more than a private, that is right.
