Robert Dunlop Posted 16 November , 2004 Share Posted 16 November , 2004 Tony There was no major battle on 14th October. So far as I can tell, 59th Division, which included 179th Brigade, was still in the front line following their attack on 26th September. At that time, the division was just short of Gravenstafel. I suspect that he may have been killed by a stray shell or such like. Robert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
