Private Robert Adam, in Ox and Bucks uniformI believe Robert Adam enlisted (don't know the date) with the Ox and Bucks LI, with whom he initially had the serial no. 22167. He was subsequently transferred (don't know the date) to the 15th Bn. Royal Warwickshire Regiment, with which he was killed on 3 September 1916, presumably during the battalion's failed attack on Falfemont Farm, Guillemont (13th Brigade, 5th Division).
