Herbert Lumsden CB, DSO & Bar, MC (* 8. April 1897 in , Oxfordshire; † 6. Januar 1945 im Golf von Lingayen) war ein britischer Offizier des Heeres, zuletzt Generalleutnant. Im Zweiten Weltkrieg Divisions- und Korpskommandeur in Nordafrika, wurde er 1943 in den Pazifik versetzt und fiel als höchstrangiger britischer Offizier des Krieges bei der Landung im Golf von Lingayen. (de) Lieutenant-General Herbert William Lumsden, CB, DSO & Bar, MC (8 April 1897 – 6 January 1945) was a senior British Army officer who fought in both the First and Second World Wars. He commanded the 1st Armoured Division in the Western Desert campaign, and later commanded the X Corps at the Second Battle of El Alamein, before being relieved by his superior, Lieutenant-General Bernard Montgomery. He was killed in action by the Japanese in early 1945, becoming the most senior combat casualty of the British Army of the Second World War. (en) Herbert Lumsden (8 avril 1897-6 janvier 1945) fut un général britannique de la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Chef d'un régiment d'automitrailleuses au sein du BEF, il est remarqué pour sa réussite lors de l'opération Dynamo en 1940. Chef d'une brigade blindée, il est très vite nommé à la tête de la 1re division blindée. Il découvre au travers de cette unité l'Afrique du Nord. Énergique et plutôt sensible, il lui arriva de discuter les ordres. Ceci fit qu'on lui attribua la défaite britannique à Gazala. Blessé à deux reprises en 1942, il est nommé à la tête du Xe corps qui prit part à la Seconde bataille d'El Alamein. Les relations avec Montgomery n'en étaient pas moins mauvaises et le chef de la 8e armée critiqua le peu d'envie dont faisait preuve Lumsden dans la poursuite de l'adversaire. Il fut ainsi limogé après la bataille. Il reçut un poste en Angleterre avant d'être transféré dans le Pacifique par Winston Churchill comme représentant militaire anglais auprès du général Douglas MacArthur. Alors qu'il naviguait à bord du cuirassé USS New Mexico, il est tué lors d'une attaque de kamikaze dans le golfe de Lingayen le 6 janvier 1945. (fr) Herbert Lumsden (Santiago del Cile, 8 aprile 1897 – Golfo di Lingayen, 6 gennaio 1945) è stato un generale britannico. Ufficiale britannico durante la seconda guerra mondiale, appartenente all'arma di cavalleria dell'Esercito inglese, si distinse sul fronte occidentale nel 1940 durante la ritirata su Dunkerque. Esperto di mezzi corazzati e di guerra meccanizzata, passò successivamente al comando in Patria di una brigata di carri armati e poi della 1ª Divisione corazzata (1ªArmoured Division), inviata nel novembre 1941 in Nord Africa per contribuire alla lotta contro le forze italo-tedesche del generale Rommel. Da quel momento partecipò, con alterne fortune, alle dure battaglie in Cirenaica (gennaio 1942), a Gazala (maggio-giugno 1942) e a El Alamein (luglio 1942) sempre alla testa di questa potente formazione corazzata. Personalità pittoresca e piuttosto irascibile, spesso polemico e ostinato, ebbe rapporti burrascosi con il generale Montgomery, da cui ricevette pesanti critiche durante la Seconda battaglia di El Alamein, in cui Lumsden ebbe la direzione del X Corpo d'armata che raggruppava la maggior parte dei mezzi corazzati britannici (1ª e 10ª Divisione corazzata costituite da sei brigate corazzate e quasi 800 carri armati).Accusato da Montgomery di eccessiva prudenza e di spirito poco collaborativo, Lumsden venne sostituito nel dicembre 1942, dopo la vittoria, dal generale Horrocks e richiamato in Inghilterra. Dopo aver comandato per breve tempo l'VIII Corpo d'armata, venne quindi inviato nel Pacifico come ufficiale di collegamento britannico presso il comando del generale MacArthur e qui avrebbe trovato una tragica morte il 6 gennaio 1945, a bordo della corazzata americana New Mexico al largo delle Filippine durante un attacco Kamikaze giapponese contro la flotta alleata.
