* The figure of 19,240 dead on 1 July is higher than in CWGC (18,480 for France, refined for UK and Canadian forces, and adjusted for army, airforce and aliases) and SDGW (17,125 for France and Flanders) databases. Deductions for non-Somme fatalities and additions for soldiers who died in a period including 1 July only lower these numbers. Work on the official figures ended after six months for ‘reasons of economy,’ not because they were complete. It should not be presumed that the Official History’s 2152 missing soldiers were dead, or that the figures stated would have remained materially unchanged if work on them had continued to completion.
