- Notes
- Rifleman Maurice Glansberg of Ottawa, Ontario, was killed in action in Normandy. “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)
