History
Henry Martens was a Mennonite Conscientious Objector who worked in various camps between Banff, AB and Jasper, AB during World War II. He was an unofficial photographer at the Maligne Camp in Jasper National Park. The Government employee in charge of the Maligne Lake Camp was Arthur Hughes and McGilvary. He took the photographs with a Kodak Brownie 116 Box camera that cost him $1.25. Martens had taken photographs of Habbakuk, while working on the project; however, the photographs were confiscated by authorities due to the confidential nature of the military project. Martens is one of four from his concientious objector group that is still alive. He resides in Abbotsford, BC.
