Betty says "John died at Tobruk (on the coast of Libiya near the border
with Egypt) from a self inflicted wound, formerly a sergeant in Royal
Horse Artillery he was demoted for unauthorised firing of a gun (or
something similar), had a horrific time and was evacuated from Dunkirk in
1940. Just a few days later told to report to Catterick Barracks from
where he was sent to Egypt. His nerves were shattered and he should
never have been sent but men were just numbers. His brother Bob (Robert)
offered to go in his place but was not allowed to".

Notes
Note for: Helma Elizabeth Braat, UNKNOWN - UNKNOWN Index
I originally showed Helma as married to Adriaan G. Laurens but the tree
given to my by Boy Weersma makes no mention of her. I do not know where
the original data came from but it may have been verbally from Tiemen
Weersma and inaccurate. I have therefore detached her pending
confirmation one way or the other.
