was also officially transferred to the Army Reserve Class Z; he had originally

establish any details of his service.
The War Office took further action in regard to 2Lt. Lawrence Tindill MM (see 14th January), who had been officially missing in action since 21st June 1918; it was now noted that “No further report has been received and enquiries through the Netherlands Legation have been without result. In view of the lapse of time since anything has been heard of this officer his name is put forward for presumption of death”.
