Robert Watson-Watt [I Love History]

[image/video deleted]

This gentleman is Robert Watson-Watt. I doubt one person in a hundred have heard of him. He invented Radar- the amazing invention that probably turned the war and saved the world from Hitler's domination. That may seem an overstatement and possibly is, but RADAR certainly gave the RAF an edge when they needed all the help they could get. Watson Watt came from the small town of Brechin in Scotland.

A breakthrough invention that came at a critical point. Hats off to him as we recognize Remembrance Day.

@Quimliqer They do, but they want more in depth information, often from primary and/or unpublished or hard-to-access non digitised source material.

It's no overstatement. The RAF would have been destroyed before they could even get into the air.
