Richard Heward
Mr. Heward was born on March 18, 1922 in Montréal, Québec. As a child he dreamed of becoming a pilot or navigator. Upon graduation from high school, he had hoped to go to England to study aeronautical engineering, but the outbreak of war changed those plans. Mr. Heward tried to join the air force, but his impatience with the long delays led him to join the army. After the D-Day invasion, he was transferred to the Norwegian Army to survey the heavy water plant in Norway that had been used by the Germans to assist in their nuclear research.
