Chom Phon (Thai:จอมพล) or Field Marshal of Thailand is a military rank of Thailand in the Royal Thai Army, considered the equivalent to a Field Marshal or General of the Army (although the former is more widely used). Today it is ceremonially held by members of the Thai Royal family and exists only on paper in the actual Thai military. The Royal Thai Navy equivalent is known as ''Chom Phon Ruea'' and ''Chom Phon Akat'' for the Royal Thai Air Force. The King of Thailand as Head of the Armed Forces is automatically made a Chom Phon upon accession, The rank was created in 1888, together with all other ranks by King Chulalongkorn, who wanted to modernize his Armed Forces through western lines.
