Field Marshal Peter Anthony Inge, Baron Inge KG, GCB, PC, DL was the Chief of the General Staff, the professional head of the UK Army from 1992-1994.

Later activities

After stepping down as Chief of the Defence Staff, he was created a life peer as Baron Inge, of Richmond in the County of North Yorkshire.[1] He also became a Knight of the Garter on 23 April 2001.[2]

In 2004 he was made a Privy Councillor and appointed to serve a member of the Butler Inquiry team, which examined the use of intelligence during the Iraq War.[3] Chaired by Robin Butler, Baron Butler of Brockwell, the inquiry determined that the intelligence used to declare Iraq's possession of "Weapons of Mass Destruction" was flawed.[3]

In retirement he became a non-executive director of Racal Electronics plc and President of the Army Benevolent Fund. He is a member of the advisory board of Aegis Defence Services,[4] a private military company based in London having previously, until February 2010, been the Chairman of the Board of Directors.[5]
