"Jaime C Brown" could be:
Name: BROWN, JAMES CAVET
Initials: JC
Nationality: United Kingdom
Rank: Second Lieutenant
Regiment/Service: Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders, 5th Bn attd 8th Bn
Date of Death: 24/3/1918
Age: 21
Additional Information: Son of Mr. and Mrs. J. Brown, of Eldon Street, Glasgow.
Panel Reference: Panel 98 (Addenda)
Memorial: Pozieres Memorial.
The Academy Roll of Honour records Jaime C Brown as being a Second Lieutenant in the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders but does not record him as dying. The fact that he is on the addenda panel of the memorial implies that his death may not have been notified by the time the Roll was published. |
