Lt Col John Todhunter to his wife Angela

Throughout the war my father, Lieut. Col. John Todhunter kept a daily diary as well as writing letters to his wife (my mother). The diaries and letters were kept in a trunk and, after my father’s death, came into my possession. This letter is an account of a voyage to the north of Iceland where my father commanded the School of Winter Warfare.

The attached photo shows the Commandos at Lochailort. My father is second from left in the front row (hands behind his back).
