I struggled a bit, at first, with this question because my scientific background made me think of 'units' such as the Newton or the Pascal which are used in physics (and which are named after people).

However, a bit of Googling suggests that you're probably referring to military 'units'. This might be the 'Lumsden' you refer to:

Perhaps your 'Stanley' was also awarded the VC?
