Muwatalli II
The "gal mesedi" was a commander responsible for the safety of the king himself. On most cases he was a member of the royal family and sometimes the brother of the king, whom he sometimes succeeded as in the case of Hattusili III, who before becoming a king was the "gal mesedi" of his brother, King Muwatalli II. A "gal mesedi" could also at times command independent military units that weren't under the king's jurisdiction.
