Paul

The cause could be, in some way, linked to his service although several years have passed since his discharge. I assume he was working on the I of M.
Nothing could be made of this unless the certified cause was recorded as service related, or was the cause of his discharge from the Army.

Derek
If you could send me a copy of the DC I would be interested to look over it. Address from link below.

Was nothing more done here? Did he not meet CWGC criteria?

Thanks

76201 is the correect man - pension card information has the wifes address as 10 Ladylaw Place, Hawick and then later an address in Southend-on-Sea.

It also shows the disabilities were a gunshot wound to the left arm and thigh, so his death appears not to have been cause by his wartime service.

Another we can at least confirm is not eligible for inclusion by CWGC.
