Private Dan John Alexy, Seaforth Highlanders of Canada. Born on 22 January 1922 in Calder, Saskatchewan and killed in action on 21 July 1943.
The exact circumstances around Dan's death are not known, but in the Seaforths war diary of that 21st July the following actions took place:
"The Seaforth Highlanders were south of Leonforte and were taken under fire by heavy machine guns at daylight. C-Coy went forward overlooking Leonforte while the rest were in support. The FOO (Forward Observation Officer) was in a very good position close to Battalion HQ, so he could direct very accurate artillery fire on Leonforte.
In the morning the Seaforths suffered light casualties. They had mortar fire on their positions."
