Only one Lancs Fusiliers in NWE in 1944:
WO 171/1329 2/5 Lancashire Fusiliers 1944 Jan-Aug
However there are potentially 6 different Highland Infantry battalions that he could have gone to in 1944
Heres a potential clue. 2/5th Lancs. They landed a day or two after the RWF, but were then disbanded in the August:

Does anyone know the name of the cemetery where the majority of the fallen RWF are buried?
