I still think you're daft to try to cram so much detail, and probably too little and understanding in, but in the spirit of what you're doing...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E._R._Braithwaite

(They're likely to have studied one of his books, and a very interesting quote on Wikipedia... "During World War II, he joined the Royal Air Force as a pilot – he would later describe this experience as one where he had felt no discrimination based on his skin colour or ethnicity. He went on to attend the University of Cambridge (1949), from which he earned a bachelor's degree and a doctorate in physics.")
