About me / Bio:
Private George Lawrence Price was born on December 15, 1892, in Falmouth, Nova Scotia. He served in the Canadian Expeditionary Force during World War I and is recognized as the last soldier of the British Empire to be killed in the war. On November 11, 1918, minutes before the armistice took effect, he was fatally shot by a German sniper in Ville-sur-Haine, Belgium. His death, coming at the end of the conflict, serves as a poignant reminder of the human cost of war. He is buried at St Symphorien Military Cemetery in Mons, Belgium.
