Lt. (ret'd) Ron Boughton: Cold War on the High Seas
Lieutenant (ret’d) Ron Boughton is a Cold War veteran who spent 37 years with the Royal Canadian Navy.
Much of that time was spent conducting electronic warfare operations off Canada’s Pacific coast. Or, as he likes to say, chasing Russian spy ships.
On this episode Ron talks about what it was like as a young man sailing with his father, the very real threats Canada faced during the Cold War and his experience as one of the first members of the Canadian military to visit China after the 1949 revolution that brought the Chinese Communist Party to power.
