Pilots And Soldiers Of The Caribbean

Pilots and Soldiers of the Caribbean is the story of the human spirit in the brave and talented men of the Caribbean who fought through adversity, in order to achieve their goals and to earn a place at the top table.




This book contains the stories of individuals who were not conscripted but felt compelled to leave their homes in the Caribbean and make the hazardous journey to join 'The Mother Country' in their fight against a common enemy.




In doing so many experienced exclusions, discrimination, and a lack of opportunity. Their enthusiasm and abilities were squandered.

For those who succeeded it proved the point that no matter what colour you are when given the same opportunities, everyone is capable of achieving great things.




Unfortunately, WWI and WWII were times when opportunities were often denied to many of the men and women of the Caribbean.
