#Churchill curious #RollOfHonour why were 2 names crossed out? Were they missing assumed dead then found?

A Bronze Penny depicting Britannia, the female personification of the United Kingdom, representing British strength and unity; she has a horse on her helmet depicting might on land and is holding a wreath of laurel; around her upper body swim two dolphins symbolising Britain’s sea power; there is a lion at her feet depicting victory, while another lion below is tearing an eagle apart. The deceased soldier is named on the medallion; round the edges "He died for freedom and honour." The name on the Medallion is Robert Blakeley who was a Private in the 2nd/10th Battalion, Middlesex Regiment; he died on 19 February, 1918.

A roll of honour mounted in a frame on a wall. It lists all those who served and those who died during the Second World War that were members of the Arbroath Artisan Golf Club.

My local golf club has a Roll of Honour / Memorial to those who served, as well as those who died, in the second great unpleasantness.
