Guy Dugdale

Guy Carol Dugdale (1905 to 1982) was a British bobsledder who won an Olympic bronze medal in the four-man event at the 1936 Winter Olympics in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany. He was born on 9 April 1905 and died on 4 September 1982. He competed in the late 1930s, and the Games at Garmisch were his Olympic appearance. His Olympic profile records that he came from an aristocratic background, with the Earl of Warwick as his maternal grandfather, and that he was wealthy enough to spend his winters in Switzerland. He rode in the British four-man crew led by Freddie McEvoy, which finished third in 1936. During the Second World War he served in the Wiltshire Regiment of the British Army. His Olympic medal was later sold at auction shortly before the 2012 London Olympics.
