Harold William Tilman, known as Bill Tilman, was an English soldier, mountaineer and explorer who was born on 14 February 1898 and died in November 1977. He held the rank of major and carried the decorations CBE, DSO and MC with a bar. He is renowned for his Himalayan climbs and for his sailing voyages, so his reputation rests on two kinds of expedition, one among the mountains of Asia and one at sea, and his name is attached to both mountaineering and exploration in the sources that describe him.
