Thomas Brooke, 2nd Viscount Alanbrooke

Thomas Brooke, 2nd Viscount Alanbrooke (9 January 1920–19 December 1972). He was the son of Field Marshal Sir Alan Francis Brooke, 1st Viscount Alanbrooke.

He received his education at the Wellington College in Berkshire and fought in the Second World War in the Royal Artillery. He was a writer and a water colour artist. He was unmarried and the viscountcy passed to his half-brother, Victor; upon the death of the 3rd Viscount, the viscountcy is expected to become extinct, as the 3rd Viscount has no issue.
