George Henry Lane : ウィキペディア英語版 | George Lane (British Army officer)
George Henry Lane, MC (18 January 1915 – 19 March 2010) was a British Army officer in the Commandos during World War II, achieving the rank of colonel. He performed a number of missions behind enemy lines. Captured on one such mission, Lane was spared after he had tea with Erwin Rommel, and later escaped. ==Early life== Lane was born in Upper Hungary, with the birth name Dyuri or György Länyi. His family were Jewish; his father Ernest Länyi was a wealthy landowner. The family moved to Budapest after the end of the First World War, when his parents' land was allocated to the new state of Czechoslovakia by the Treaty of Versailles. He moved to London in 1935, where he befriended the Dean of Windsor, Albert Baillie. He studied at Christ Church, Oxford and then read English at the University of London, but also trained with the Hungary men's national water polo team, and wrote for a Hungarian newspaper on a freelance basis.〔(Commando: Winning World War II Behind Enemy Lines ), James Owen, p.263-269〕〔(Ten Commando ), Ian Dear, p.7, 86-91〕
