Uploader's Notes: L/Sgt. Bert Herridge was later elected as Member of Parliament for Kootenay West. His BC Death Certificate states he was born in London England. He suffered a gunshot wound to his right shoulder and arm. I recall as a child he always wore a white glove on his right hand. He has a lane in Nelson BC named for him - "Herridge Lane". gar
