Lieutenant Colonel Francis Charles Claydon Yeats-Brown, DFC (15 August 1886 – 19 December 1944) was an officer in the British Indian army and the author of the memoir The Lives of a Bengal Lancer, for which he was awarded the 1930 James Tait Black Memorial Prize.
His admiration and advocacy of Italian fascism cost him his role as editor of the Everyman paper in 1933.
