- Private Max Lampert of Toronto, Ontario, was killed in action on July 18, 1943. Chaplain S.B. East, chaplain with the 48th Highlanders, wrote to Private Lampert’s mother: “I shall never forget your son or the way he died... Your son was a courageous man and his courage made possible the capture of Valguernera, a town in the valley below, that afternoon....” There is a Star of David on his gravestone.
