The "mugshot" photos are scans of negatives that Special Forces Historians were given from the Association and they scanned them for us. Huge thanks to Ken Finlayson and Earl Moniz and their team for all the hard work.

Sam Zahara
3-3
Sam was my mother’s brother; one of 12 children of Ukranian descent who grew up on a farm near Gardenton, Manitoba, Canada (about 1 hour drive south of Winnipeg).  
 
Sam enlisted in the Canadian army in 1941 and eventually joined the 1st Canada-US Special Service Force. He trained at Helena, Montana, and served at Kiska and in Italy.  He was wounded three time, and was awarded the US Silver Star for gallantry at Anzio (I am also attaching a scan of some newspaper articles about Sam from 1944). After the war Sam eventually returned to Helena, where he lived until his death in 1972.
