John Arnold Todd (19 May 1951) is a retired Zanarkian officer who served under Task Force 131.
As the eldest son of EWII veteran Michael Todd, John often looked out for his siblings, especially his younger brother, Alexander Michael Todd. While the two fought during the later stages of the War of Lorican Aggression, John served in the army while his brother was a bombardier in the RZAF. He was also one of the few WoLA enlistees who fought in the post war crisis that followed as TF 131 underwent a new structural command as its old officers were already retired. He became particularly close with Kiriya Kitagawa, whom he mentored when Kiriya was still a young officer. He would serve with Kiriya even after Kiriya had outranked him in 1991.
John retired in 2003 to run the long standing family business that started with his father in 1947.
