Notes
Caulfeild is spelling in supplied paperwork (see documents) and on both the memorial and the college archive records. The CWGC offers no casualty with this surname but there is one WH Caulfield who died on 2/12/43 in Chittagong, aged 32, having served in the Royal Army Service Corps. and this is clearly him as the college archies carry the following biography:
William Henry Caulfeild was born in County Limerick, Ireland on 7 October 1911, the youngest son of Mary (née Bacon) and George Blake Caulfeild. He was educated at Forest School, London from 1925 to 1929, where he was a House Monitor and played fives, cricket and football.
William Caulfeild entered Worcester College on 10 October 1930 and spent three years at the College, although he left without taking a degree. He married Lorna Wilkinson and during the 1930s he and his wife worked as hoteliers at Villefranche in the south of France. The family had returned to London by the outbreak of war and William Caulfeild attended the Officer Producing Centre for the Royal Army Service Corps before being commissioned as a 2nd Lieutenant in the RASC on 18 May 1940.
Major William Caulfeild died on 2 December 1943, aged 32, in India. He is buried at Chittagong War Cemetery (now in Bangladesh) and commemorated on the war memorials at Forest School and Worcester College, Oxford.
