Larry.

He died in Natal, South Africa in late 1952 and his Will was Probated in England in early 1953. The Toronto Newspapers ran a brief obituary referencing him as LtCol Percy Drake-Brockman.

He married in early 1920's and had a Son and Daughter.

On 24 February 1945, he entered the USA at Buffalo, New York on route to Washington, DC. He was going to stay at an address on Connecticut St in Washington, but I have no idea why. He returned to Canada via Buffalo mid April. Probably traveled via train.

His wife was still alive and living on Vancouver, BC as of 2003.

If there are any Canadian Military records for him, they might be under the name quoted in the Toronto papers.

David
