It's quick and easy.

Your man's enrolment papers are available

ALEXANDER, WALTER ROBERT LOCKYER
Regimental number(s): 228002
Reference: RG 150, Accession 1992-93/166, Box 82 - 52
Date of Birth: 22/02/1895


and he seems to have survived.

Just do the search at the Collections Canada page and click on his name as above, and then you can click on the "front of form" image to see the actual papers.


Ancestry has the papers as well but this is the free-of-charge option!
