Bryan was born in Handsworth, Birmingham in 1962 to Jamaican parents. He was not awarded a place at grammar school because of discrimination. Bryan was recruited to the RAF when he left school at 16 in 1979.
Although Bryan finally reached the rank of sergeant, in common with some other black veterans he found promotion slower than those of white counterparts. During his RAF service, Bryan experienced what he describes as banter but says he gave as good as he got.
A highlight of his career was active service in the First Gulf War of 1992. Bryan left the RAF in 2002 and after a period of training became a Baptist minister in the local church in which he was brought up.
