75th Canadian Infantry Battalion - extract from War Diary
« on: Monday 19 July 10 11:02 BST (UK) »
I came across these documents while looking for Wallace Antill who emigrated to Canada. 

Unfortunately I found him, listed in those killed in November 1916 during an attack on Desire Trench.   :(

I can't post the photo of him with his wife and children as I can't get it below 500kb.  If you are interested, PM me and I will send it on.
