John most likely served in C-Company of the Seaforths. They were in the field South of Leonforte when they were under heavy machine gun fire. The Germans had well dug in in Leonforte and fired on the advancing Seaforths. C-Company at that time was the only one forward company, the rest were in support. From a high ridge the Seaforths were causing much damage to the Germans by sniping and firing their Brenguns. On their turn the Germans also sniped on the Seaforths. Casualties at that time were light and it is most likely that John was killed during these actions.
