General Lord George Augustus Frederick Paget KCB (16 March 1818 – 30 June 1880) was a British soldier during the Crimean War who took part in the famous Charge of the Light Brigade.

His parents were both previously married, and divorced; his father to Lady Caroline Villiers (later the Duchess of Argyll), and his mother to Henry Wellesley (later 1st Baron Cowley).

He is frequently quoted for his references to the Russian engagement in Balaklava on the Crimean Peninsula: "Every fool at the outposts, who fancies he hears something, has only to make a row, and there we all are, Generals and all... Well I suppose 500 false alarms are better than one surprise".

He is famous for having charged with the Light Brigade while smoking a cheroot (a type of cigar favoured by soldiers who served in India).

After her death on 10 March 1858, just six days after the birth of her child, he married, secondly, Louisa Elizabeth, daughter of Charles Fieschi Heneage, in 1861.
