Whatever its just an opinion.

That would be Field Marshal Sir Claude Auchinleck.
Alright... Who is this then?

Sorry, no.
That is Commander Charles Herbert Lightoller DSC* RD RNR Rtd. Made famous as the senior surviving officer of RMS Titanic and brave WW1 captain who won the DSC and later a bar to it for various actions including the sinking of a U-Boat by ramming.
In WW2 he was retired, but that did not stop him from using his small boat to rescue troops from the beach at Dunkirk during several crossings of the Channel.
Regards, Ned.

Correct; it's "Lights" indeed. (One of my personal heroes, I might add.) And so it's over to Ned!
