Resident Chatham

The son of Mr. and Mrs. E. Camp of 244 Selkirk St., Chatham, ON., brother of Garnet A3726, RCASC and Raymond A9383 RCASC.  

Prior to the war Bruce was employed at the Chatham Hotel.

Bruce enlisted in London to the army in November of 1939 in London, ON. and by December of that year was overseas.  

While in England Bruce met and married Irene (Lathan) of Richmond, Surrey, England and had a son Gary. Both mother and son arrived in Canada in October of 1944 long before Cpl. Camp arrived home in Chatham in February of 1945  on a 30 day furlough for men who had served overseas for five years. “The baby (then two) when Cpl. Camp came home “was fast asleep when his father came home could hardly believe his eyes when he awoke to find his Dad in the house. It took little time however before the two became acquainted.” CDN 8/02/45
