• Served in WWI as a sergeant with the Canadian Infantry (Manitoba Regiment). Died in France on 3 May 1917 at the Third Battle of the Scarpe. The Third Battle of the Scarpe was a general offensive by all three armies astride the Scarpe to secure better defensive positions. In the Canadian Corps sector, the attack focussed on the village of Fresnoy-en-Gohelle. The Canadian participation principally involved attacks under a heavy artillery barrage on the night of 2 / 3 May. The Canadians took their objectives and then endured heavy German shelling and counter-attacks throughout the day of 3 May 1917. However difficult, they held their positions until they were relieved two days later. Walter is commemorated at the Vimy Memorial.
