Rambling With Lucy
•
For it was at Clinton that the miracle of the embryonic
electronic age was born and introduced to thousands • of allied
military men.
Clinton is the home of radar.
The first men to be trained in this then top ,secret air defense
sy$tem were sent to Clinton to learn an art that now is the key'
to the protection of more than 220 million citizens of the United
States and Canada.
Without Radar, the North American Air Defense Command
(NORAD) would be just another of the thousands of acronyms
that have sifted into 20th century language,
Today radar is a household word in countless places. The
Weatherman uses this electronic 'blip' system Jo track the
progress and direction of tropical storms, hurricanes and other
disturbances on his black screen. The fighter pilot uses radar
to 'home in' on his quarry and the bombardier picks up his
target by radar,
The names of Clinton and radar have been linked for years.
To some people they are synonymous. During World War II
wherever Canadian, British or American radar technicians ser.
ved - and that was in virtually every corner of the globe the
name of Clinton was well known, for the majority of these
men received their training there.
In the early days of the war, radar was, of course, highly
classified. Consequently, a place remote from the scene of
battle and world attention was required, so training in operation
of the highly specialized equipment could be conducted safely
and with maximum security.
