Sergeant McLennan Finally Identified
from Calgary News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
After 100 years, a Canadian WWI soldier finally gets his name back — Sergeant Norman McLennan, whose grave in France was unmarked until now, will be officially rededicated. Enlisted in 1905, he shipped to Bermuda before heading to the Western Front, fighting in key battles like the Somme. Last seen in action on October 8, 1916, his identity was lost — until today. The Department of National Defence has confirmed his remains, bringing long-overdue recognition to a hero whose story nearly faded into history.
