Soldier will get a headstone in Bo ness Cemetery over 100 years after his death A First World War serviceman killed in a training accident in 1917 will finally receive a Commonwealth War Graves Commission headstone thanks to the work of local authors. Friday, 14th May 2021, 10:21 am Private Michael Muldoon, of the Royal Scots Fusiliers, was only 18 when he was accidentally shot during a training exercise at Whinnyhill Shooting Range in Burntisland, on November 14, 1917, while stationed at Kinghorn in Fife. Private Muldoon was subsequently buried in an unmarked grave in Bo’ness Cemetery. While his name appears on Bo’ness War Memorial, he was not – until very recently – commemorated by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC), despite the fact he met the criteria for its criteria for commemoration.
