Memorial
Photograph taken in Kulu Valley, near Manali, India, in 1985. Birth and death dates slightly different from that given by Canadian Virtual War Memorial (born June 2 vs. June 3; died Oct.19 vs. Oct.20), but presumably is the same person. Will send a 2nd image zoomed in on inscription. Photo courtesy of Kevin Bartlett. -
