Keith's mom told me that he turned down a place at Queen's University to join the Air Force. Here is what Keith wanted to do after the war.

August 4 1944 - Letter from Keith to his mother
'I wish this war would hurry up and get finished as I could get back to school, that sounds funny coming from me but I have made up my mind that I want to  be an aeronautical engineer if I have enough grey matter to get through such a course. As soon as I get on opps I can take a course there, that will give me a start. '
