In the fighting west of the Meuse (France) on November 3, 1918, Lieutenant Douglas Tilford Cameron was assigned to an accompanying battery. ‘Here,” writes a correspondent, “he was in his element, and in the desperate fighting that ensued young Cameron’s pieces were boldly serving in the fact of decimating casualties. He met death as an honorable, gallant soldier prefers to die.”
