Only the living returned to the UK, dead were generally buried in the theatre they died in. A large number of wounded who were shipped back to hospitals in the UK and subsequently died are marked like their dead comrades overseas with a commonwealth war graves headstone. There are a few exceptions, generally men buried in family plots.
I have George Curry's medals in my collection. Had them a few years.
George was buried in Maple Copse Cemetery, which unfortunately was close to the fighting lines and was subsequently shelled, many of the earlier graves thus being destroyed or unidentifiable.
George being one of them.
