I was thinking more along the lines of there being none to choose from on the CWGC site as the only Philip was in the RN. :o

There's Percy Philpot Armstrong but now I see he was navy too.

W P Armstrong Lance Corporal in the Lancashire Fusiliers died 29th Sep 1918. His middle name could be Philip?

[Merry]

I missed that one! He was Walter Percival.

Just looked on FMP at Soldiers who died in WW1. No Philip Armstrong there either.

I found a Philip Armstrong in the military records on Ancestry but he was demobbed, so not killed in action.

Second Lieutenant in a Fusilier Regiment
