John Thompson McKellar Anderson

Major John Thompson McKellar Anderson VC DSO (12 January 1918 – 5 October 1943) was a British Army recipient of the Victoria Cross, the highest and most prestigious award for gallantry in the face of the enemy that can be awarded to British and Commonwealth forces.
‘Jock’ Anderson was educated at Stowe School where he was in Chatham House along with his close friend Leonard Cheshire, who was also awarded the VC, and at Trinity College, Cambridge.〔Rees, Brian, ''Stowe: The History of a Public School 1923–1989'' London: Stamp Publishing, 2008. ISBN 978-0-9544879-2-8. pp. 148–9.〕
In 1943, during the Second World War, Anderson was an acting major in the 8th Battalion, Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders (Princess Louise's), in Tunisia. He had been promoted from "lieutenant (temporary captain)" in which rank he was awarded the DSO "in recognition of gallant and distinguished services in North Africa", but that award had not yet been published when the action took place for which he was awarded the VC, on 23 April 1943 at the Battle of Longstop Hill.
