Pte. Arthur Rowland
British Army 4th General Hospital Royal Army Medical Corps
from:11 Repton Way, Croxley Green
My grandfather, Arthur Rowland, had been in the Territorial Army. Despite being 37 years old, he volunteered for the RAMC in 1939. He was in A Company at first, and later his letters say 4th General Hospital. He was sent somewhere in Europe and crossed back to England at Dunkirk. He spent the rest of his service time at Leeds where he had plastic surgery on his neck to treat damage caused by radium treatment as a child. The surgery was not a great success, damaging the nerves in his neck. He was discharged in 1941 and joined the ARP in Leicester.
