Events › Serving in Silence

Gwen Settle, who was born in Dartmouth, NS and lived in Ontario, Alberta and BC as well, made Abbotsford her home in August 2000.

She joined the Royal Canadian Navy in 1962, serving as a Naval Operations WREN on the east coast of Canada during the Cold War in a trade classified as Top Secret. It wasn’t until the late 1990s that she was able to talk about her work.

Since then Gwen has spoken to many schools, groups and organizations throughout Canada both in-person and via Zoom about her experiences.

Join us and Gwen at Clearbrook Library on Monday, November 7, 2022 from 6:30-7:30pm as she talks about “Serving in Silence”.
