Canadian sniper on the Western Front

Colby Cosh has been poking around the digitized records from the National Archives of Canada, which has prompted an interesting post on "Lance-Corporal Henry L. Norwest, MM and Bar, a Métis sharpshooter and sometime rodeo performer from Hobbema, Alberta, who became one of the most feared snipers on the Western Front. He certainly did in more Germans, at any rate, than the much better-known Billy Bishop."
