22nd Royal Fusiliers arrived in France in November, 1915 to join 99 Brigade, 2nd Division. Between 10th June and 14th June, 1916 they were in the front line trenches at Carency, just to the north of Arras. Walter North was killed in action on 11th June, 1916, but the Battalion Diary entry has no mention of any casualties. When not involved in an actual battle it was either shell fire or a sniper’s bullet that caused most deaths and injuries.
