Hopefully Spidge will have the headstone photo (unless he didn't complete his hometown before going to Europe....) Not much to add for this casualty from my side, none of his files at the NAA have been digitized - Illness (Cause of death from AWM ROH) / Place - General Hospital, Caulfield, Vic 29-May-40 21SQN From the WW2roll he is identified as a pre-war regular, having enlisted in April 1925 (the low service number is another indicator of his long service)
