He was due to enrol at Worcester College, Oxford in 1914 but, as the college archive states, 'John Page was offered a place at Worcester College from Michaelmas Term 1914, but chose to enter the army at the outbreak of war in August before he could matriculate. He served for four years and saw action in Gallipoli, Egypt and France. Captain John Page died on 22 August 1918 of wounds received in action in France; he was posthumously awarded the Military Cross on 16 September 1918 for holding up German advances and enabling his battalion to safely withdraw.'
