Alice Strike

Alice Strike (Born: Godalming, England, United Kingdom in 1896-Died: Camp Hill Veterans Hospital, Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada on December 22, 2004) was the last surviving female Canadian military war veteran.

In 1914, she joined the Royal Flying Corps, as a pay clerk. She married her first husband whom she met in Woking, England, a Canadian man named James Stobie, during the war, and later relocated to Winnipeg, Manitoba where she had with him four children over forty years. After Stobie retired, they moved to Vancouver, British Columbia. After her husband died, she met George Strike on Queen Charlotte Island in British Columbia. At the age of 90, when she was again single, she moved to Nova Scotia where her daughter Buzza would care for her. She also had a son, James Stobie, of Victoria, British Columbia, four grandchildren, seven great-grandchildren and three great-great-grandchildren, at the time of her death.

Strike was one among 46,000 people to receive the Jubilee medal in February 2003. The Queen had also sent congratulations every year since Strike had turned 100.

Strike was also a member of the Royal Canadian Legion.
