Donald I. Grant
I'm interested to find out what happened to Lt. Donald I. Grant.
The reason is that the Dutch Stentor newspaper is intending to write a story about him and the CFPU. Mr. Grant was a Canadian war photographer and part of the Canadian Film and Photo Unit (CFPU. He went with the troops starting with D-Day and going all the way up through France to Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany til the end of the war. Germany in 1945. I'm interested in finding out if he continued as a photographer, and what happened to him. If anyone here knows of him, or connects to him I would appreciate hearing from you. Thank you in advance for your assistance.
