Pte. Joseph Victor Roe
British Army 1st Btn. West Kent Regiment
My grandad Joseph Victor Rowe was in the 1st Battalion of the West Kents. He'd only rejoined them on 14th August 1914, he was a Reservist having been in the Army 1904-1907.
He was reported missing on 24th August 1914, presumably at Mons. He spent the next 4 1/3 years in a prison camp in Germany, only returning to England in December 1918.
