Dan worked in the mines of Northern Ontario before volunteering for the Royal Canadian Engineers in the Second World War. He served with No 1 Tunnelling Company in Gibraltar, England and Europe, rising to the rank of lieutenant and earning a MiD and an MBE. The MBE came while he was on the rehabilitation of the Florence water supply from 12 August 1944 to 24 August 1944. During the early stages of the work, he and his crew were constantly harassed by the enemy who held the north bank of the Arno River. Dan discovered that the only supply of urgently special parts he needed were over there ahead of our own patrols. Without hesitation, Lt Giannini undertook this dangerous journey and although British and German patrol clashes were being fought some 200 yards to his flank he found a way through to the store and brought back the essential fittings, and did it again the next day. 

After the war, Dan switched to insurance with Empire Life rising to Vice-President by retirement. After retirement with no slowdown in sight, Dan became chairman of D.A. Stuart Oil Co. He established the Daniel Giannini Bursary in 1998  to be granted to students enrolled in the Michael G.

MBE Citation

Lieutenant Giannini, 1 Canadian Drilling Company, was employed with his section in the rehabilitation of the Florence water supply from 12 August 1944 to 24 August 1944. During the early stages the work was constantly harassed by shell fire and snipers from the north bank to with the enemy had withdrawn. On 15 August certain special fittings were urgently required and civilian information disclosed that these could only be obtained from a store located in front of our forward patrols on the north bank. Without hesitation Lieutenant Giannini undertook this dangerous journey and although British and German patrol clashes were being fought some 200 yards to his flank he found a way through to the store and brought back the essential fittings. Lieutenant Giannini successfully repeated this journey later in the day. His action resulted in re-opening the water supply to the city of Florence where conditions were serious. But for Lieutenant Giannini's inspiring and hard working example, showing complete disregard for danger, this vital supply would not have been completed in the time available.

We regret to advise of the death of Sapper Leo Schan, MM (Ret’d) on 22 May 2003 at home in Port Alberni, BC at the age of 85 years.

Leo was born on the first Remembrance Day in 1919 in Winifred, AB to Russian immigrants. He was one of 13 children born between 1905 and 1925 on the Prairies where the family relocated around the prairies before settling in Lethbridge. In Lethbridge Leo presaged his fighting spirit with a short but successful career in the ring where he boxed as a featherweight under the moniker "Alberta's Toy Bulldog."

When the Second World War began, Leo and his sister Dorothy along with six of his brothers: James, Jack, John, Joe, Leonard, and Nick all enlisted in the Canadian Army.  Leo served in No 1 Mechanical Equipment Company along with James who was also a Sapper in that unit. Brothers Jack and Joe were also Sappers. James was killed in Germany during the Battle of the Hockwald Forest. During the war four brothers, including Leo, were wounded.

Leo was awarded the Military Medal for his fearless courage and devotion to duty while operating an armoured bulldozer in support of 34 Tank Brigade. He received his Military Medal at Buckingham Palace.  

After the war, four of the brothers:  Jack, Joe, Nick and Leo, settled in Port Alberni and found work as longshoremen on the docks.  The brothers quickly integrated into their new community and made an impact.  This impact was recognized when a retired Merchant Seaman, upon receiving his payout from the Canadian government, used his money to build a memorial to the family on the waterfront.  Under the title "The Fighting Schans," words on the tablet tell the story of the brothers starting with "They fought in streets, alleys and bars. fought for human rights and for union brothers' work rights."

Leo retired in 1982 and then enjoyed boxing, fishing, travelling and his family.  A service will be held at the Somass Legion Branch #169 on 26 May at  2:00 p.m. where Leo was a Life Member. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Leo's memory to the Alberni Valley Hospice Society, 2649 2nd Avenue, Port Alberni, B.C., V9Y 1Z8 or the charity of their choice.
