A soldier dozes off on duty, facing the prospect of a court-martial. An officer battles for survival in the mud, valiantly defending his comrades and himself. A young man strides across Waterloo Bridge, carrying explosives in his rucksack, his heart racing with anticipation.

These narratives encompass the spectrum of human emotions, from death and despair to hope and resilience, and they revolve around ordinary individuals whose lives will forever be altered by their wartime experiences.
