Career
Fred Rowe was a Monmouthshire Auxilier who left before the Nominal Roll was drawn up, so his Patrol is not known.
He later joined B Squadron, 1 SAS in common with a number of Auxiliers, probably recruited direct from finishing basic training after searches for men who had served with Auxiliary Units.
He was recorded in a list of Auxiliers compiled for a reunion in 1994, living in Newport.
