Some comments upon reading the thread above:
Many Americans, and other nationals crossed into Canada for the express purpose of enlisting in WWI. Same thing happened in WWII. Canada got into both wars a lot earlier than USA did. Recruits had to swear allegiance to the King of England, etc. Canadian residency or citizenship not required.
Cement Finisher----his occupation as listed in the 1930 US Census.
Veterans returning to Canada were given land, usually to farm, but that may not have had any appeal to Victor the military man.
It would be interesting to see what US records exist if he were in the American military prior to WWI.
