George Bingham, 3rd Earl of Lucan
Field Marshal George Charles Bingham, 3rd Earl of Lucan, GCB , styled Lord Bingham before 1839, was an AngloIrish aristocrat and British Army officer.

He was one of three men, along with Captain Nolan and Lord Raglan, responsible for the fateful order during the Battle of Balaclava in October 1854 thar led to the Light Brigade commander, The Earl of Cardigan, leading the fateful Charge of the Light Brigade. Lord Lucan also made an important contribution in Parliament when he came up with a solution which allowed Jews to sit there. He was subsequently promoted to field marshal despite the debacle at Balaclava.
