Lieutenant-Colonel Alfred Tippinge, KCH (2 May 1817 – 2 August 1898) was a British Army officer. As a Grenadier Guard he "served with distinction" in four fields of the Crimean War of 1854: at Alma, Balaclava, Sebastapol and Inkerman. At Inkerman he was badly wounded and left for dead for 24 hours before rescue. He was awarded the Crimea Medal with four clasps, Chevalier of the Legion of Honour, the Order of the Medjidie, and the Turkish Crimea Medal. The Hampshire Advertiser later said, "He was once described as one of the bravest men in action ever known". Tippinge is known today for the drawings, paintings and letters which he sent home, illustrating at first hand the experiences of the British Grenadiers in 1854.
