Hello, I am doing an info. search for an Uncle. He served in the Royal Engineers from 1917 to 1918, may have been a prisoner of War. Did prisoners of War get any help with there education at all in England? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

At the end of hostilities men in the army were kept busy with a mixture of physical fitness, drill and educational programmes. This is commonly written about in war diaries.

Hi Kate,

Richard van Emden wrote a book called 'Prisoners of the Kaiser' which may be of use to you.

All the best,

Tim
