Default Finding Private Albert Laubenstein: CBC News The National Special

See https://youtu.be/lOwhvR9-T8w

On 19 June 2014 we found the remains of a soldier. He was later identified as Private Albert Laubenstein, a Canadian soldier that was killed in the Battle of the Kapelsche veer in The Netherlands. He was enlisted with the Lincoln and Welland Regiment and died in the early morning of 26 January 1945 as part of operation Elephant at the Kapelsche veer. On 6 May 2015, more than 70 years later he finally got the funeral he deserves.

This video was on CBC News - The National.
