Johann Josef Wenzel Anton Franz Karl, Graf Radetzky von Radetz (English: John Joseph Wenceslaus Anthony Francis Charles, Count Radetzky of Radetz; Czech: Jan Josef Václav Antonín František Karel hrabe Radecký z Radce; Slovene: Janez Jožef Vencelj Anton Francišek Karel grof Radetzky; 2 November 1766 – 5 January 1858) was a Bohemian nobleman and Austrian field marshal.
He served as chief of the general staff in the Habsburg Monarchy during the later period of the Napoleonic Wars and afterwards began military reforms.
A disciplined but fair man, he was so beloved by his troops that he was known as Vader ('Father') Radetzy.
He is best known for the victories at the Battles of Custoza (24–25 July 1848) and Novara (23 March 1849) during the First Italian War of Independence.
He was called into battle at age 90 and served until age 91.
He was immortalized by Johann Strauss I's Radetzky March commissioned to commemorate Radetzky's victories at the Battle of Custoza.
