[@darinfisher989]

C Fisher was my grandfather.. the reason he used false name was because he was only 13 when he joined World War I.... he joined the Navy first under his brothers birth certificate. After 1 years in the Navy they found out. discharged from the Navy.Then joined the army under the the name in this show... he was born in 1903

Love that yall took the time to track this down

My grandfather a Seaforth Highlander died in 1918 the last year of WW1. He was shot in the head where the bullet severed the Antler in his Deers Head cap badge. The cap badge and Telegram sent to my Grandmother were left to me and, I recently forwarded them to the Seaforths Regimental Museum, they wrote and thanked me profusely for the gift.

[@derekaxtell3594]

My grandfather was a Royal Scot Fusillier on the Somme. He came back wounded, he never spoke of what he did and witnessed till the day he passed, grandma said such were the horrors she only knew tiny parts because of the nighmares!!!

@@derekaxtell3594 Must have been so horrible. We are so lucky to have such brave, courageous men before us. We can only thank each and every solider who took their lives for today’s freedom.

I have a medal group of a ww1 captain who fought and fell in my province. I tracked down his grave and visit him as often as possible. It’s surreal … buried in a small cemetery in a little town. Holding his history in my hands and seeing his grave 😢

[@henerymag]

24,029 Canadians died at the Somme. 55% have no known grave. Many listed as missing did at one time have a wooden or other marker made by their comrades but were destroyed by artillery fire and lost forever. My Great Uncle is buried in France, KIA Sept.19 1917 he does have a gravestone at the Cabaret Rouge Cemetery in Souchez, France.

[@StaceyIsles]

Thank you to your Great Uncle and other service men and woman Less we Forget their sacrifices

[@f18_lovermacdonald-doaglau69]

RIP those truly brave men, My Greate-grandfather, Ron Plater got the military cross in New Guinea in ww2. Sadly I never got to meat him becuase he died before I was born.

[@user-hk8ik5xv7p]

Some served under false names because they were too young or too old, others because they had been discharged because they were unfit but they went back, truly a generation of steel backed men that we will never see the likes of again. RIP lads.

[@TC-qd1zw]

My mams Sister, Aunt Elizabeth married a Ruben Grieves Charlton who had a stepbrother called Thomas Charles Smith who served as Charlton. He rests at Duhallow ADS Cemetary in LEPER (Ypres). Died as a result of injuries. RIP Thomas and sincere thanks to you and the rest of your comrades. Five great Uncls lie in foreign fields as a result of this war and an Uncle Charles Cuthbert Brennan, Stoker on Trawler minesweeper Ganilly killed off the DDay beaches escorting an American supply fleet. His grave is his ship at the bottom of the Channel along with all his 39 crew mates. Xxx

[@Verdunveteran]

It's an interesting story but I have to call bullshit on part of it. The trenches visited here are those perserved at the Newfoundland Memorial Park. The Newfounland Caribou statue is clearly visible in the background more than once in the latter part of the clip. On 1 July 1916 this was the jump-off positions of the 1st Battalion of the Newfounland regiment, that was part of the 88th Brigade of the British 29th Infantry Division. This is the entire reason why these trenches were preserved in the first place as the ground was purchased by the Canadian province of Newfoundland in 1921 to create this memorial parc. Otherwise the trenches and the shell craters would have been filled in by the locals after the war to become farmland again. Just like 90% of the Entente and German Somme-frontline from 1 July 1916 was. The 2nd Battalion of South West Borderers spoken off in this video also belonged to the 29th Infantry Divison, but the 87th Brigade. However they did not attack from these trenches on 1 July 1916. Their jump-off positions were on a different part of the 29th Infantry Divisions frontage further north. So there is no chance at all that C.A. Fisher's remains rests were Bruce claims they do in this clip. Bruce and the production simply went to the only perserved part of the front line open to the public that is dating from the morning of the 1 July 1916 on the Somme sector. It's more likely that C.A. Fisher's remains rests under a headstown marked Unknown but to God in the British war cemetary closest to the actual jump-off position of his battalion that would be the Hawthorne cemetary. And if his remains still rests were he was killed it's not that close to the Newfoundland Memorial, but in or infront of the South Wales Borderers jump-off position further to the north.

The only thing is upperclass subject could be exempt from conscription.....while men of lower class were through peer pressure etc into service and the conditions were hell no doubt and the top brass were 30 miles inside the lines and living in luxury......today this wouldn't happen there would a civil war....The ruling elites are now on the back foot Royalty etc don't hold the same reverence that they had then even though they're were of German ancestry Saxo coburg gotha changed to windsor for fear of revolution and today royals have changed with the times but nobody should be above or below someone we all go where we came from 6ft of Earth dugout and covers is all ....Ifor one will never forget ....ever again
