Another biographical source (see References) states 'Herbert Gwynne, at the tail end of the Battle of the Somme in 1916, was wounded and collapsed into a shell hole. His fellow officer did not stay with him as he had to continue leading the men forwards. The shell-hole and surrounding area was later searched, but he was never found.'
