Tragic Story Di Three War Brides

HALIFAX. Dec. iB—(CP)-The

strange coincidence of how three Canadian girls married three Ing- lish airmen while they were train- ing in Canada, went overseas on the some ship to join their hus- bands, became widowed while in England, and then returned to Canada on the same ship became known here today. v The three women, Mrs. Elaine Ballantyne, Truro, N.S., Mrs. Dor- cthy lnsiey, Norwood. Man, and Mrs. Averll Barber, Toronto, re- turned to Canada a few days ago on the Monarch of Bermuda. They went overseas in July 1944 and. became sfriends while sharing the same dormitory on the ship.

Mrs, Ballantyne had her first disappointment when the boat docked. Her husband, F0. Alex Beliantyne was on operations and unable to meet her. Six weeks later, without having a reunion with his wife he was killed.

Mrs. Insiey and Mrs. Barber were not so unfortunate. Their husbands were on hand to greet them and to take them to their new homes in a strange country,

The next of the two to meet death was Flt. Sgt. Howard Ins- iey. He was killed with the rest of his crew when their bomber crashed dee in Germany in Jan- uary of ths year. Mrs. Insiey had spent but one lB-day leave with her husband.

Warrant Officer Bob Barber, the third to meet death, was kill- ed in a plane crash in England with three other crew members of their Anson bomber. Five months later a son, David, was born to 19-year-old Mrs. Barber.

During the 1% year-s the three spent overseas they had no con- tact with each other. Each was anxious to return to her homg in

week ago they met again-in the immigration office at Liverpool where they were sailing to Can- ada on the Monarch of Bermuda.

On the trip to England on the Rengatata, the three, all brides of only a few weeks, discussed freely their plans and their hopes of new friends and a new home in a new country. They wondered, too, if they would ever meet again and

Navy Recruiting To Begin“ Early In New Year

(By The Canadian Pres!)

QTTAWA, Dec. l9—A_ctivc rc- cruiting fo1'_ihe Canadian post- war Navy will start early in the New Year, but before the cam- paign begins Defence Minister Al)- bott will announce the terms of service, it was learned here today.

Plans for the campaign are ul- resdy taking shape and are suffic- iently advanced in some Kill/BIO“ to permit the acceptancepf some new recruits now.

Navy Department sources dc- clined to comment on a Montreal news dispatch which quoted Capt. Mackenzie R. Cflmllbe". @°"'"T"\"' der of the Montreal Naval DlVlS- ion, as saying that the enlistment period will be five years instead of the former seven. Cmdr. Camil- beli was quoted also as saying that a standard 10th £11139 9mm" tion would be regarded as a uri- terlon of acceptance. and that tho recruiting age would be from 1'1 to 25 years.

It was learned. however, that divisional commanders were given an outline of the terms of service and of recruiting 01BX15 ("Id We" being allowed to make statements on the matters as soon as they were prepared to receive recruits.

The over-all statement, however, would be made by Mr. Abbott- Air Minister Gibson is expected to announce the terms of service in the post-war Air Force early m the New Year. The Government undertook at the recent session lo make such announcements prior to March 3i. i946.

Until recently only former mcm- bers of the three services were entitled to apply for enlistment in the interim forces, which will dis- appear Sept. 30, 1947, when the permanent forces are csiaimlisized. The Navy is believed io be the first of the services to begin ac- ce ting new recruits.

t is expected that men who sign for lhc interim forces will form (he nucleus of the pcrnlun- ent services, scheduled (o ioul 55,000 men.
