During WWI, 306 soldiers of the British and Commonwealth Army were shot at dawn by firing squad for desertion or cowardice. Not until some 90 years later did they receive posthumous pardons from the British Government. On Parade accompanied the British West India Heritage Trust to Belgium to visit the WWI condemned cells at the Poperighe Town Hall. These are some of their stories.
