rico:history "W. G. Rosenthal was born on November 3rd, 1922 in Montreal. Gunner Rosenthal of Montreal enlisted in the army in February 1942 and went overseas with the Royal Canadian Artillery in June of the same year. Prior to his enlistment, he had worked for the Canadian Press and had been an editor of the Fortnightly Review. In one of his last reports to the YMHA Beacon, he had written:\"And when the air is once again clear from the smoky dust of fire, and when the blood of the dead and the wounded is dry, and the stench of human bodies is pure, the men who are alive after victory is achieved, with God's aid, will return... For they (the dead) shall not have fallen in vain. Not in a world where our holy sanctuaries are safe and unmolested, in a world where organizations, institutions of culture and learning and education are respected and upheld and supported. No price is too great to pay. No life too precious, to enforce our beliefs and ideals\" Rosenthal was killed in action in Sicily on July 25, 1943. He was buried in the Canadian Military Cemetery at Agira. Citations received were the 1939-1945 Star, Italy Star, Defence Medal, Canadian Volunteer Service Medal with Clasp, War Medal 1939-1945, and Memorial Bar GRVI.
