The battle of the Somme is faithfully reproduced with every line of the tale, with its introduction to the arial warfare and all its connotations.

Man was the dominant animal and it shows in the way he fought Englands wars, what with modern weapons and death dealing destruction at every yard of hard fought ground. On both sides the toll of death was on a scale unknown in the modern world

Even now pieces of men who fought for this slice of land is still unnaccounted for and buried where they died, still with their precious possessions beside them.
