He received a gun shot wound to his left foot in September and returned to the UK for treatment, returning to his unit in Jan 1916. Next entry is dates 1st July 1916, at first listed as missing and then 'Died on or since 1/7/1916'. John's CWGC entry shows killed in action and he is remembered at Theipval. In 1919 John's father William is written to in preparation of issues of the death penny and he is required to list all living blood relatives on army form W 5080, not something I've seen before.
