RARE pictures have emerged of a war hero who helped found the SAS. 

Lieutenant Colonel Blair “Paddy” Mayne volunteered for the British Army in the Second World War.

He became one of the most decorated soldiers in British military history before joining forces with David Stirling to form the Special Air Service.

His story has been told in hit BBC drama SAS Rogue Heroes, in which Mayne is played by actor Jack O’Connell.
