In the war, Joey was taken care by a young great soldier Captain Nicholls, who died while riding him when charging the German base. Joey was taken by the German, under a boy named Gunther’s care. Gunther is there with his little brother, Michael who’s only 14 years old. They fled from the war (defected) and was later found and shot by the Germans. Joey, along with another warhorse, Topthorn are found by Emilie, a sweet French girl who seemed to be very sick. When taking the horses out for the ride up the hill, the Germans captured her horses.

When the war ends, all horses that don’t belong to officers get auctioned off. While the soldiers were trying their best to buy the horse for Albie, Joey was won by Emilie’s grandfather, but after exaggerated pleads, Joey comes home to Devon with his friend, Albert.
