     The assumption that Henry’s absence from the 1939 “census” due to war service is correct. I knew from memory that he served (and was taken prisoner) in the Middle East but was unaware that he had served with the British Expeditionary Force in Europe until I unearthed his Army service book today; the Discharge Certificate, first image below, gives the details.
From messages home and a small number of entries on the Forces War Records site I have been able to establish that having been captured by the Germans in June 1942 he was held first at an Italian POW camp (PG73) at Carpi, near Modena; in 1942/43. From the Easter message home, second image below, he was there until at least April 1943. After the Italian surrender to the Allies, I read that the Germans moved prisoners to camps still under their control; in 1944 he was moved to Stalag 18-D in Maribor in what is now Slovenia and from there was to Stalag 18-A in Wolfsberg, Austria, from where he was liberated in May 1945.
He would have been called up in September 1939 as he had previously been a regular soldier (six years) plus a Reservist commitment. (He joined the Royal Artillery in 1919 and served as Driver of horse-drawn gun carriages. The Royal Army Services Corps had moved on to motorised transport by the time he served in anger.)
