Walk Among Heroes

Jun 2 2023 • 24 mins

Walk Among Heroes is pleased to welcome Gilbert Clarke.  Originally born in Jamaica, Mr. Clarke volunteered to join the British Royal Air Force as a teenager, and was trained to install and maintain radar technology on planes in the RAF fleet.  Radar technology was developed during World War 2, as it became necessary to track German rockets approaching London.  Mr. Clarke was on the forefront of this technology.  Walk Among Heroes had the honor of meeting Mr. Clarke in Normandy in June 2023.  Such an inspiring man!
