Bond was born on 26 January 1920 in Glasgow, Scotland. He attended Haberdashers' Aske's Boys' School in Hampstead, London. Bond enlisted in the Coldstream Guards of the British Army soon after the outbreak of the Second World War, where his education marked him out for officer training, and he was duly sent to Sandhurst. As an officer cadet Bond trained alongside Patrick Leigh Fermor and Iain Moncreiffe.Opting to transfer to the Grenadier Guards, he was invited, with other hopefuls, to dinner by the Adjutant, Captain E.H. Goulburn. After being plied with drinks and subjected to a grilling, at which most of the cadets managed to maintain a suitable air of sycophancy, Bond was asked: “So, Bond, you were an actor! Aren’t all actors sh*ts?” After replying “no more than regular soldiers, Sir!” – his future was assured. After the Dunkirk evacuation in May 1940, such was the apparent threat of invasion that the cadets were deployed in the defence of Camberley. However, with only one Bren gun between three hundred their effectiveness must have been limited. Finally, Bond was commissioned in July 1940.

Serving with 3rd Grenadiers, Bond saw action in Tunisia and on 12 December 1942 was wounded in the leg by a machine gun bullet. Evacuated home and awarded a Military Cross in February 1943, he dined with future prime Minister, Harold Macmillan who had commanded the same platoon until wounded in the Great War. He was captured in Florence in the summer of 1944, and spent the last few months of the war in Stalag VII-A, a Bavarian POW camp. Read even more about Derek Bond at Wikipedia
