Pte Nash, of Victoria, Australia served with A Company. He died on 24 July 1916, aged 21, of wounds received in the Australian charge at Fleurbaix during 19 - 23 July 1916. In this action, which formed part of the Battle of the Somme, (Ed note: this is not technically correct - the Somme is much further south) Australian troops attempted to advance but were pinned down by German forces located behind them as well as in front of them. Cut off, they charged the German lines in an attempt to return to their original point of advance.

A page from a Stokes Mortar training pamphlet, illustrating the key features of the Stokes Mortar. Baseplate to absorb recoil, adjustable bipod to 'lay' the mortar on the required bearing and elevation, and the tube or barrel. Its cylindrical bomb was inherently unstable and its 'always' fuze was necessary to ensure detonation. Later developments saw the introduction of fin stabilised bombs which with the weapon itself, evolved into the 3 inch mortar used in WW2.
