EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait showcases Colonel David George Carr Sutherland CBE MC TD DL (1920-2006), a distinguished British Army officer and intelligence operative, during the 1950s. Sutherland's military career spanned from 1939 to 1977, with a significant focus on intelligence and special operations. The image captures the intensity and determination of this remarkable man, who served with the SAS (Special Air Service) and SBS (Special Boat Service), two elite units of the British Army. Sutherland's covert missions and exploits on Crete during World War II were a major inspiration for the role portrayed by Dirk Bogarde in the 1954 war film "They Who Dare." Although Bogarde's character was not named after Sutherland due to his continued military service, the similarities are striking. Sutherland's contributions to the British military extend beyond his operational roles. He was also an accomplished military author, penning several books on military history and tactics. His dedication to his country and his profession is evident in this powerful portrait, taken circa 1955. Colonel Sutherland's decorated military career included the Military Cross (MC) and the Territorial Decoration (TD), as well as the Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE) for his services to military intelligence. The Distinguished Service Order (DSO) was also conferred upon him, but the details of his wartime gallantry remain classified to this day. This evocative image serves as a testament to the courage, resilience, and intelligence of Colonel David George Carr Sutherland, a true British hero whose legacy continues to inspire and captivate.
