WW1 deaths - daft Q?

[Merry Monty Montgomery]

Ancestry have this list:

UK, Soldiers Died in the Great War, 1914-1919

Why do so many of them say Theatre of War Aldershot?

I've looked up some deaths from my tree, who all died in France or Belgium and none of them have any place mentioned.

*feels confused*
