Sir Gerald Reece KCMG CBE DL (10 January 1897 – 14 October 1985) was a British writer and colonial administrator.
He served as Governor of the British Somaliland Protectorate from 1948 until February 1954.
Gerald Recce was born in 1897 and as soon as he reached the age of eighteen, he volunteered for service in the British Army.
From 1921 to 1925 he practised law in London but office life was rather dull after his war-service and he gave up the safe career for the unpredictability of colonial service.
He married Alys Tracy (born 13 March 1912 - died 18 January 1995) in 1936.
