History
David Ward Clement was born September 2, 1897 to Edwin Perry Clement and Janie Elizabeth Bowlby Clement in Berlin (Kitchener). He was educated locally and was a member of the local boy scouts troupe. He later went on to study at St. Andrew’s College, then located in Toronto, Ontario, from 1913-1915, where he was a member of the Cadet Corps. In 1915 David enlisted in WWI and in 1916 was transferred to the Montreal Highlanders with whom he went overseas. In 1917 he joined the aviation corps. It was in this position that he was killed in action during a collision with another plane. He was buried in France at the Aire Communal Cemetery (I. G. 6.). David was posthumously awarded the British War Medal and the Victory Medal. His mother was given the Memorial Cross.
