World War I British Victoria Cross Medal Recipient. Serving as a Lieutenant in the Royal Canadian Regiment, his Brigade was held up by enemy fire from all flanks during an advance at Cambrai, France, on September 28, 1918. Although wounded twice, he led his men against enemy trenches in which he personally killed or wounded 11 Germans, took 25 prisoners and captured 12 machine-guns. In spite of his wounds he stayed with his company and on September 30, led his men again in attack until severely wounded for the third time. For outstanding valour, he was awarded the Victoria Cross Medal and later achieved the rank of Brigadier General. (bio by: John "J-Cat" Griffith)
