There is a newspaper cutting on ancestry.com saying he was late of Buenos Aires, Argentina and temporarily of Went House, West Malling, Kent.

Its says he died on 8th Sep 1945, but I don;t think this cutting, which is a request for debtors to contact his estate etc takes into account if he was KOAS, KIA DOAS etc.

He is on a few family trees on ancestry.com so I am askign one tree owner who says he died in an accident.
