Anniversary At Clinton
25 Years Of Radar
Military radar training in
Canada started in Canada 25
years ago at CFB Clinton.
This September the gradua-
tion anniversary of the first
class of Canadian radar train-
ees will be observed at the
base.
Members of that class are
being encouraged to return
to the base to participate in
various functions during the
week beginning Sept. 12.
Among the events will be a
dinner for former comman-
ding officers at the base Sept.
15. Defence Minister Hellyer
is scheduled to speak at the
dinner which is coincident
with the 25th anniversary of
the Battle of Britain.
Included among the events
planned for the anniversary
is a CBC musical show.
During the early stages of
the Second World War, radar,
which was known in the. RAF
as radio direction finding, was
cloaked in secrecy.
Canada Safe
In 1941 the British Air Mini-
stry decided that scarce radar
equipment could only be safe
in Canada during a period
when German bombing raids
on the United Kingdom were
so devastating, and Canadian
manpower was needed.
Clinton was chosen as a
natural site for the school
because the high bluffs along
the •Lake 'Huron shore were
much like the coasts of Eng-
land, and anti -submarine
training had been started by
the RAF at Sky Harbor, north
of Goderich. This was to assist
in air search radar training.
For security reasons Clinton
was fairly well isolated, but
close to large centres.
The RAF radio school open-
ed July 20, 1941. The first
course was composed of mem-
bers of the United States'
navy and marine corps.
From September 15, 1941,
to the end of the war, 5,000
Canadian technicians and 750
officers in addition to 2,500
Americans graduated from
Clinton.
In 1943'the RCAF took over
the station and it became a
permanent base in September,
1945.
