George Armstrong Custer went from last in his class at West Point, to Brigadier General at the age of 23. That's pretty damn impressive.

His Civil War record is widely overshadowed by his defeat at the Battle of Little Bighorn, where he and his men were massacred by a coalition of Native Americans.
