He served as acting governor of Grenada for two weeks before it officially achieved independence in February 1974 and he became governor-general. He retired the year before the 1979 Grenada revolution. In the 1960s, Dame Hilda Bynoe who was the existing governor of Grenada appointed Leo de Gale as the acting governor of Grenada because she had to take care of some business in a foreign country. Sir Leo de Gale became the first governor-general during the reign of Prime Minister Sir Eric Mathew Gairy. Sir Leo de Gale reigned from 1974 to 1978. He was then followed by Sir Paul Scoon (1978 to 1992). Following his political career he took up residence in Bristol, England.[1] References1. ^1 2 {{cite web | url=http://www.gov.gd/biographies/leo_degale_bio.html | title=Biography: Sir Leo De Gale | publisher=Government of Grenada | date=November 9, 2009 | accessdate=March 11, 2015}} {{s-start}}{{succession box | title=Governor-General of Grenada | before=Sir Leo de Gale(as Governor of Grenada) | after=Sir Paul Scoon | years=1974–1978}}{{s-end}}{{authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:De Gale, Leo}} 9 : 1921 births|1986 deaths|Governors-General of Grenada|Knights Grand Cross of the Order of St Michael and St George|Grenadian people of European descent|Commanders of the Order of the British Empire|Governors of British Grenada|Sir George Williams University alumni|Royal Regiment of Canadian Artillery personnel |
