Cleophas Poitvin was born at Easson, Que on 2 Jul 1895 and became a lumber grader by trade. He conscripted under the Military Service Act, 1917 at Ottawa on 27 May 1918 and enrolled in the 2nd Depot Bn, Eastern Ontario Regt.
He appears to have proceeded to England but not further to France. Thus, this is his only medal. Medals to reinforcement units that were not part of the Cdn Corps are scarce.
