Lt Francis Johnson (Seville), 58th Battalion: Is killed in action, hit by shrapnel in the right thigh from a shell blast and died five minutes later. He is 36 years old and is buried at the Bellicourt British Cemetery, France.
Sgt William Marshall (Wandin), 57th Battalion: Is awarded the Medaillemilitaire (France) for actions on this day. His recommendation states: ‘At Bellicourt practically the whole of his platoon were casualties and he personally supervised the collecting of the wounded from the open and their transport to a place of safety. His example to the remnant of his platoon, whom he had organised as a Lewis Gun Section was beyond praise as these men were very shaken having been very severely knocked about by direct artillery fire. It was under this direct fire that he assisted the wounded’.
Cpl Andrew Ragartz (Seville), 59th Battalion: Is wounded in action, severe gunshot wound to left thigh, and is evacuated to hospital.
