The grandson of Baron Andreas Falkenberg, Swedish consul to British North America, Carl Frederick Falkenberg inherited his grandfather's title of nobility. Working as a clerk in Quebec City, he joined the 8th Royal Rifles in June 1915. Commissioned in March 1916, Falkenberg was posted to the 171st Battalion four months later and sent overseas. In October, he was reassigned to the 14th Battalion but was badly wounded on 27 November 1916. After six months in an English hospital, he transferred to the Royal Flying Corps in June 1917. In March 1918, he joined 84 Squadron under Sholto Douglas, flying the S.E.5a in combat. He was wounded for the second time on 10 May 1918. Promoted to Captain on the 8 September 1918, he commanded "B" flight until the Armistice. Upon his return to to England, Falkenberg transferred to the Royal Canadian Air Force and served as a flight commander with 1 Fighter Squadron until his discharge on 18 October 1919. |
