from:Hull, Yorkshire
My cousin Edwin Vincent served with the 19th Battalion, Kings Liverpool Regiment. He was declared killed in action on 22md of March 1918. About three months later he arrived at Stendal camp and his family were notified that he was alive and a Prisoner of War. This information came from an interview in The Daily Independent on Saturday 11th of November 1933. An actor by trade the interview is under his stage name Edwin Beverley. It detailed that he was wounded then used as labour before being transported to the camp, his time in camp and joy at the Armistace.
