Hello all, after having another look at the above picture and, noticing the name of Captain C.M. Merritt, I wondered if the name was of someone else with the same monicker and of 2nd Wold War renown.....
Charles Cecil Ingersoll Merritt VC, ED (10 November 1908 – 12 July 2000),
was born in Vancouver, British Columbia on 10 November 1908, the son of Captain Cecil Mack Merritt, who was killed in the Second Battle of Ypres, on 23 April 1915.
....too good to be true.....
