CFPU personnel bios are being updated weekly as information becomes available. Any omissions, or should you wish to share additional details to any of the listed bios, please contact me.
Good Morning,
I am just trying because you may know the answer.
We in Holland are trying to get pictures of all the fallen Canadians at the Groesbeek War Cemetery. We do have a lot but still miss a bundle.
Do you know whether at the time of enlistment pictures were taken ? If so where can one find them ? They must be with the military, somewhere ?
You can check the work at https://www.facebook.com/FacesToGraves
Thanks for your help

Hi Bob – thank you for contacting me. First of all, congrats on your projects initiative, putting ‘Faces to Graves’. I will reply in more detail with a follow-up email, but for now I can say this; due to the enormous amount of photographs, negatives and prints taken during WWII, it has created a huge challenge to process these in a manner to enable easy public access. This goes for DND (Department of National Defence), as well as LAC (Library & Archives Canada). What I can tell you here, is that all of the Canadian military personnel files who were killed in action (KIA) during WWII, are currently available at LAC; https://recherche-collection-search.bac-lac.gc.ca/eng/help/kia (Second World War Service Files – War Dead, 1939 to 1947). And in those files, sometimes there is a photograph. Sometimes. But for those looking for more information regarding those lost during the war, this can be a good place to start. I will be in touch with. Dale.
Hi Dale,
Anything on Barney Gloster. I am looking for his cine partner on March 24th, 1945 near Xanten as the Airborne aircraft crossing the Rhine were captured. Believe they were on a hill just south of Xanten.

Hi Charles – thanks for reaching out – I have made a note to look into searching more in depth on what I can find on Barney Gloster – have you had a chance to search through the Army Numericals for any of his photos; https://canadianfilmandphotounit.ca/2020/04/12/library-archives-canada-army-numerical-series-110-albums-now-available-online/ – Dale
Thanks Dale,
Will check it out.
Merci … Chuck
