The first thing you should do when researching a Canadian soldier of the Second World War is get a copy of their service record. If they were killed in action or died during their service in WW2 their record may already be online. If not it must be request from the Library and Archives Canada. Follow the link below for information on how to check for a record and/or make a request.
