I was too young to have known Gladys but her memory should be etched in stone to be remembered by the generations the security forces served to protect. Gladys played her part to. God bless.

Belfast, United Kingdom
I served in Northern Ireland on two occasions, a two year tour in Londonderry, and a six month tour in Belfast. I met Gladys a number of times, and never really gave her much thought. But I have always remembered her. And when I speak to other soldiers, they remember her too.
