Pte John Corbett 2nd Worcs

[Mike Cross]

Copy below of Pte Corbett's POW card. I have never seen one of these before. My German dictionary can handle the typewritten details and most of the handwritten information. His initial placement is at Soltau followed by Emden Dockyard and then an unknown location prior to return to Soltau. Any ideas on this - looks like Wiesmoor ?

The card records his capture at Armentieres on April 9th 1918. He survived his ordeal and rejoined the Army(Royal Artillery) in 1922 serving 6 years in the colours and six in reserve.
