Circumstances of death

[Yorts]

I have been puzzeling over the cause of death for some time of Gunner Ernest Jolly L/21277 172nd Bde RFA who died 19/2/17. Previous discussions on the forum allied with some detective work of my own suggests that it was of natural causes, probably an illness as this unit was non-existant by this date.

However, on visiting his grave in France it transpires he is buried next to another artilleryman 3652 Gunner Albert Jenkins Y 16th TMB RFA who died on the same date. Does anyone know the circumstances surrounding this soliders death and could it be related, or is it chance that the only two men to die on this day and be buried next to each other in this cemetary were both members of the RFA?

Any help would be appreciated.

Rgds,

Alex.
