- Private Jack Besserman of Toronto, Ontario, was officially reported killed in action east of Regalbuto, Sicily. Enlisting in the Canadian army in March 1940, he trained at Camp Borden. He proceeded to England on July 15, 1940, and trained there for three years. Rev. S.B. East, chaplain of the 48th Highlanders, wrote to Mrs. Besserman: "He died heroically, facing the foe. He was a true son of ancient Israel... I buried him in the cool of the evening using the Old Testament ceremonial provided by the Senior Jewish Chaplain. I hope to see to it that the Star of David is placed above his grave... one of the best loved and inspiring personalities in the 48th Highlanders...." (Source: Canadian Jews in World War II) There is a Star of David on his tombstone. (Source: Veterans Affairs Canada Web site)

- Lance Sergeant Jack Faibish of Markinch, Saskatchewan, was officially reported killed in action in the invasion of Normandy, France, on July 28, 1944. He was posthumously awarded the Certificate of Good Service by Field Marshal Lord Montgomery of Errigal. Sergeant Faibish enlisted in the army on September 11, 1939, and went overseas shortly afterwards. His brother, Max, served with the R.C.A.F. in Bombay, India. “Montreal, August 8, 1951 - Earlier, we reported on the policy of the Department of Natural Resources of the province of Saskatchewan to name lakes, rivers and islands in newly surveyed areas in honour of former residents of Saskatchewan who had been killed in action while serving the Canadian Armed Forces. We furnished the Saskatchewan government with a list of Jewish servicemen compiled from our publication ‘Canadian Jews in WWII,’ the first part of which was devoted to those killed during the war. The announcement made by the Saskatchewan government on July 10 included the following locations named after Jewish men: Faibish Bay, after Jack Faibish, son of Mr. and Mrs. Aaron Faibish, Markinch, Sask.; Levine Lake, after David Levine, son of Mr. and Mrs. Ben Levine, Swift Current, Sask.; Glansberg Lake after Rifleman Maurice Glansberg.” (CJC publication IOI #1175)
