Laurent Dubois 1920-1944

This is Laurent Dubois.

I found this picture on the Canadian Virtual War Memorial while looking for more information on Jean Charles Labrecque.

I believe Laurent Dubois was on the same Halifax as Jean Charles Labrecque on December 18, 1944.

This is his grave.

Laurent Dubois was a wireless operator and a gunner and was with 425 Squadron Alouettes.

I found seven airmen from that squadron who died on December 18, 1944.

Pilot Desmarais

Navigator Bernier

Air gunner Paradis

Wireless operator Dubois

Air bomber Labrecque

Air gunner Larivière

Air gunner Gauthier

Tomorrow is December 18, 2009 and I will pay homage to these men.

Lest we forget
