JAMAICA’S Chief of Defence Staff Vice Admiral Antonette Wemyss-Gorman launched her memoir on Sunday, May 31, 2026 to much acclaim at Jamaica Officers Club, Up Park Camp.
The memoir, Life, Duty and Command, is the first penned by Wemyss-Gorman and gives insights into her life growing up in Top Alston, Clarendon, through to her years in the Jamaica Defence Force (JDF) — from the day she enlisted to January 2022 when she made history by being appointed the only female head of an armed force globally.
