Lord Carrington | The Rt Hon Lord Carrington KG GCMG CH MC PC Eventually to become a much respected Minister of Defence, Peter Carrington started his career as a Sandhurst trained regular officer in the Grenadier Guards. As part of the Guards Armoured Division, with Sherman tanks, he took part in Operation Goodwood in Normandy and then the pursuit of German forces across Europe including Operation Market Garden in which he commanded the daring tank dash across Nijmegen Bridge. After the winter battles in Holland and Germany, he was involved in the Rhine crossing and stayed with the Division until VE-Day. He ended the war as a major, receiving an MC in 1945. Carrington resigned his commission in the same year to take up what became a long and distinguished political career. |
