Sir Brian Edward Urquhart KCMG MBE (28 February 1919 – 2 January 2021)
The chap they didn't listen to when he said it was a bridge too far and look out for the SS Panzers.
Broke his back in 3 places in a failed parachute training accident: "you'll never walk again", and 6 months later he had returned to duty.
