Edwin JESTY - MILITARY SERVICE and POW record

 Prodded by Mum and Becky finding these record cards in the National Archive

And this screen shot which promises more from Ancestry when I rejoin.

There are a number of extant artifacts:

A small piece of paper smuggled out of Germany to notify the family where he was when taken POW. I believe Mum has this, an also:

A small soap dish with scratched in details of the camps he was held in.

A carved broach or pendant.

Some tartan swatches and a cap badge from his regiment.

I have a number of cap badges and ribbons which Grandad had placed in an envelope labelled “John Willy” - his name for me.

A regimental history.

UPDATE

The returning POW interview form mentioned above
