I fought in both World War 1 and 2. In WW2, I violated neutral waters to carry out an important mission, leading to tensions but not war with the neutral country. I was very active throughout the war, and rose to a very high rank afterward.

Who am I?

Captain (afterwards Admiral of the Fleet Sir) Philip Louis Vian

You are good, or I still give away too much. Capt Vian is who I am looking for, tied in with the Altmark incident rescuing 300 seaman captured by the Graf Spee.
