Milton served as a Signalman in the 1st Division Signals. He landed on the 10th of July 1943 on the Pachino beaches where his Company was of great importance in coordinating the Canadian inland advance. Milton was killed two days later on the Pachino Ispica road when the convoy they were in was attacked by the German Luftwaffe. An airplane opened fire on their truck killing Signalmen Robert Quinn, Herman Jinssen, Charles Brown and Sergeant Ted Kroon. Seven men were were wounded and this attack made that the RCCS had the highest casualty rate in the opening days of Operation Husky.
They are all buried at Agira Canadian War Cemetery.
