The page lists "WOOD, Franklin, Chicago" among Illinois lieutenants killed in action. That fits a Franklin G Wood who died in 1918 in the war. The entry has no middle initial, date or place of death, so it only confirms that he was killed in action, not the date or the place.
Matches: Page 273 of Soldiers of the Great War lists "WOOD, Franklin, Chicago" under Illinois, Killed in Action, Lieutenants—Continued; Surname and given name match the claimed Franklin G Wood; Killed-in-action listing fits a death in October 1918
Limits: The entry gives no middle initial, so "G" is not confirmed; The entry shows no death date, so 11 October 1918 is not stated; The entry shows no place of death, so Bois de Chaumes is not confirmed; The entry shows no birth year or age, so 1895 cannot be checked; The only locality is Chicago (the soldier's home town), and the claim names no residence; The listing is a compiled memorial volume, not an original record; Several Franklin Woods could exist, but only one appears in this list
