    By the looks his details on the ww2roll, OX stands for typo.

    Should be QX57332 (Q22665)

    It looks like someone needs to contact the CWGC (via the OAWG at the DVA)

    His service number is correct on all Aussie sites (ww2roll, AWM ROH & NAA file header).


    Here are some details on his death in action from his unit's War diary & operational log:
