Korean War William Ross Bond (December 4, 1918 – April 1, 1970) was a United States Army brigadier general who was killed by an enemy sniper in 1970 while commanding the 199th Infantry Brigade in South Vietnam.
He participated in the Allied invasion of Sicily and later led his company in the Salerno landings in September 1943.
In a night attack at Cisterna, Bond was awarded the Silver Star, but was captured by the Germans and was held in a prisoner of war camp in Poland.
Bond began his first tour in South Vietnam in 1959 as a part of the U.S. Military Assistance Advisory Group.
On April 1, 1970, during Operation Toan Thang IV, Bond was killed by a sniper's bullet shortly after landing in his command helicopter to oversee an operation in Bình Thủy District, 37 miles (60 km) north-northwest of Hàm Tân District.
