Thomas Pakenham, 5th Earl of Longford KP, MVO (19 October 1864 – 21 August 1915), known as Lord Silchester until 1887, was an Irish peer and soldier.
Born in Dublin, Longford was the eldest son of William Pakenham, 4th Earl of Longford, and his wife the Hon. Selina (née Rice-Trevor), and succeeded in the earldom on his father's death in 1887. He served in the Life Guards, achieving the rank of Colonel, and also held the honorary post of Lord-Lieutenant of County Longford from 1887 to 1915. In 1901 he was made a Knight of the Order of St Patrick.
In Dublin, he was a member of the Kildare Street Club.[1]
During the First World War Lord Longford commanded the 2nd (South Midland) Brigade of the British 2nd Mounted Division, a yeomanry, with the rank of Brigadier-General. The Division was initially based in Egypt but was sent dismounted to Suvla on the Gallipoli peninsula as reinforcements during the Battle of Sari Bair. On 21 August 1915 the Division was in reserve for the final attack on Scimitar Hill. When the initial attack by the 29th Division failed, the yeomanry were ordered to advance in the open across a dry salt lake. Raked by shrapnel fire, most of the brigades halted in the shelter of Green Hill but Longford led his brigade in a charge which captured the summit of the hill. As he continued to advance, he was killed. His last words before his death were, reputedly "Don't bother ducking, the men don't like it and it doesn't do any good...."
Longford's body was never recovered as the British made no further advances before the evacuation of Suvla on 20 December. His grave is marked as a special memorial in Green Hill Cemetery at Suvla.

If you have a good PC this game fucking rocks, anyone who bitches about this game is clearly a dirt farming peaseant with a PC who isn't as good as mine and doesn't have social class HAWH
When I first played this game, I didn't like it, but its come a long way, and its free to play, which means whole clans can get involved and really define the multiplayer teamwork aspect. 5/5 for me.
Epic Game, Greatest single player, actually feels like your in it after a while, Multiplayer is the product of a Micheal Bay Movie and GI Joe - Its fantastic, Better than Gmod, Better Than Timesplitters, Better than Half life 2, MASTERPIECE!
