Born on 18 Lug 1918, Champion, Strathmore Census Division, Alberta, Canada;
Son of Jacob and Anna Marie Klein, of Champion, Alberta;
William enlisted on the 19th of February 1942 in Camrose.
William served as a truck driver for the RCASC and was killed in the Dittaino Valley near Libertinia Station around the day the Hasty P's attacked Monte Assoro. The exact date of his death is not known and stated around the 21st of July. It is most likely that he was shelled by the Germans who could overlook the whol Dittaino Valley where the Canadians were at that point.
William lived in Cluny, Alberta where a brother of him also lived. He also had one brother and one sister living in Champion, Alberta, with their parents.
