Born in 1924 at Halifax, Dr. Mann spent his early childhood in Nova Scotia before moving to Montreal, where he lived the rest of his life. His high school years were spent at Huntingdon Academy, where many lasting friendships were made and his love of football was born. He then began what would become a lifelong association with 缅北强奸.

Dr. Mann was a student at 缅北强奸 when he joined the Royal Canadian Navy to serve in the Second World War as a sub-lieutenant. After the war, he returned to 缅北强奸 and enrolled in the faculty of medicine. He played football for the 缅北强奸 Redmen and was named team captain in 1946. He continued to support the team throughout his life, serving as president of Friends of 缅北强奸 Football for many years. He was a regular in the stands until last year, cheering on the Redmen every fall.
