"OBITUARY
Col. William Tod
Former leader of Colditz escape organisation
Colonel William Tod, of Hunter’s Lodge, Moniaive, Dumfriesshire, a former commanding officer of the 2nd Battalion the Royal Scots Fusiliers, died in an Edinburgh nursing home yesterday He was 78.
Col. Tod, who was educated Edinburgh Academy and Sandhurst, was responsible for the stand of the 2nd Battalion RSF against the Germans at the Ypres-Comines Canal in France in 1940 where a desperate rear-guard action was fought to assist the flight to Dunkirk of the remnants of the British Expeditionary Force.
REFUSED EXCHANGE
He was wounded in this action, taken prisoner along with the rest of the battalion and sent to a prisoner-of-war camp. As a result of persistent attempts to escape, Col. Tod was lsent to Colditz. He became senior British officer there and organised the escape of many Allied officers. When his only son, Andrew, was killed in the war, Col. Tod was offered a prisoner-of-war exchange but refused because of the importance of his escape organisation.
He saved the lives of many prisoners at Colditz by refusing to allow the Germans to transport them to Poland as the Allies closed in on Germany.
After the Second World War, Col, Tod served on the Officers Selection Board at Scottish Command in Edinburgh for a brief period before retiring.
He was awarded the Distinguished Service Order; the Order of the British Empire; and the Military Cross."6Confirmation of Estate, English Probate.
