Canada's most decorated aboriginal veteran, Tommy Prince from Petersfield, Manitoba and the Brokenhead Reserve was a descendent of the Salteaux Chief Peguis. Prince easily met the requirements for enlistment in the army but was turned away several times. Prince persisted and was finally accepted in June 1940. He did well in the army, first as a field engineer and then a paratrooper and he rose quickly to the rank of sergeant. Prince was selected to be part of an assault team, the 1st Special Service Force, which became known as the Devil's Brigade.
From the Historica Canada website come the following tales from his service in WWII:
In 1944 in Italy, Sergeant Prince was spying on the Germans. He set up an observation post in an abandoned farmhouse, a short distance from the enemy. For days, he reported on the activity in the German camp. Soon after, shelling severed the communication wire. Undaunted, Prince donned civilian clothing and acted as a farmer tending his crops. By pretending to tie his shoes, he successfully repaired the break in full view of the German soldiers. His actions resulted in the destruction of four enemy tanks that had been firing on the Allies.
Prince continued to distinguish himself. In the summer of 1944, he walked across miles of mountainous terrain deep behind German lines, going days without food or water, to locate an enemy camp. He returned with his unit and they captured more than 1000 German soldiers.
