Description
Lieutenant John Steel “Jock” Lewes
21 December 1913 – 31 December 1941
Jock was one of the founding fathers of the regiment and considered by many to be the original training officer.
David Stirling said later of Lewes: “Jock could far more genuinely claim to be founder of the SAS than I.”
Lewes also invented an explosive device for the purpose of the SAS, the eponymous Lewes bomb.
