He served with the Home Counties (Kent) Heavy Battery before joining 332 Seige Battery RGA with whom he died of wounds on 26/09/1917. He is buried in Dozinghem Military Cemetery near Poperinghe.Also buried very close is Corporal 125696 Fred Hudd of the same Battery. He died of wounds on 28/09/1917. In Brandhoek Military Cemetery is Gunner 168213 Duncan LANG of the same battery. He died of wounds on 30/09/1917. Did these men die through wounds sustained at the same time?
