[edit] Colonial administrator
Hugh Foot, Lord Caradon, had a career in the diplomatic service only in the latter stages, when he went to the UN. For most of his working life he served in Britain's Colonial Service, which he joined straight from Cambridge in 1929. That involved administration, leadership in creating new nations out of British dependencies, not diplomacy.
[edit] Six-Day War
More needs to be said about Lord Caradon's role in the diplomatic activity surrounding the Six-Day War of 1967. Odd Bull praised him as the outstanding figure in the Security Council debates surrounding the conflict. 16:19, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
