149th Brigade, 50th (Northumbrian) Division at the Battle of the Sambre on 4 November 1918. 3/RF launching the brigade assault alongside 13/Black Watch just south of the Mormal Forest on the approach to the canal. If your man fell in that action he is buried within sight of where he was killed.

Cheers,

Simon
