Lieutenant-General Richard Rohmer is arguably Canada’s most
decorated citizen. A commander of the Order of Military Merit and
an Officer of the Order of Canada, his career began in World War II
where he earned the reputation as one of Canada’s top Mustang
reconnaissance pilots. For his service, which includes flying over
the beaches of Normandy on D-Day, he received the Distinguished
Flying Cross. A lawyer, litigator, journalist and best-selling
author of 28 fiction and non-fiction books, Rohmer has met with
such public figure as Queen Elizabeth, General George Patton,
"Intrepid" Sir William Stephenson, Presidents Eisenhower, Regan,
and Clinton, and has flown with John F. Kennedy. He is currently a
member of the board of directors of Hollinger Inc. Recently, he
chaired the 60th anniversary of the D-Day Advisory Committee to the
Minister of Veterans Affairs. His autobiography, Generally
Speaking: The Memoirs of Richard Rohmer, is written with Rohmer’s
characteristic frankness and insight.
