Circumstances of Death

Robert is listed as being killed in action on 9th May 1917 in Salonika. Unfortunately the Salonika campaign war diaries are not available online and I cannot find any information, newspaper articles or books about Robert or 80th Field Ambulance and as a consequence we cannot give any information about his death.
