Albert Dubois joined the RCNVR at the age of 17. His father, who had served in the First World War, signed the papers so he could join. In his later years, when asked why he joined the Navy, he said he didn't like running and figured there would not be that much on a ship. Also, all his friends joined and he wanted to hunt German submarines. He served in 2 ships as a seaman gunner. After the war he joined the RCAF as a photographer.
He passed away in the veteran's hospital in Saint-Anne de Bellevue, Quebec.
