Our World War

British troops arrive in Belgium two weeks after the declaration of the First World War, a front that tests their skill, courage, and ingenuity, and leads to the war's first Victoria Crosses.

The British forces have been decimated, and across the country, new battalions are formed by friends banding together to fight. Paddy Kennedy and his friends join the Manchester Pals Battalion.

The British design a weapon intended to break the stalemate after four years of warfare, and Private Chas Rowland's determination to see the war end leads him to joining the Tank Corps.
