I'm struggling to find more detail. Knotty Ash Camp was certainly used by the US army in WW1. A distant relation of mine in the Canadian Army in WW1 was based at Knotty Ash Camp prior to demobilisation at the end of WW1. On his army record there is a dental certificate with a stamp mark on it saying Knotty Ash Camp. So not just Americans used it. I'm not sure if Knotty Ash was used again in WW2. There were certainly camps in nearby Huyton in WW2. The US army and enemy POW/internees were based in Huyton in WW2.

The arrival at Liverpool in 1944 that I watched on Pathe News was the arrival of the Arundal Castle. Quite a good short film.
