This man is very elusive and does not appear on the CWGC. All indications are that this is Lieutenant Gerald Featherstone Knight, MC. Local newspapers mention him as volunteering at the outbreak of the war and that he escaped from a German POW camp in 1917. The Gazette entry regarding his MC which was awarded in 1919 along with several other RFC/RAF Officers for escaping from captivity.
