When war broke out in 1914, thousands were eager to join up for the adventure, including John Langford. But his four years serving as a stretcher bearer in the RAMC would change the way he viewed life forever.
To commemorate Remembrance Day, we head to the Western Front during World War I as we follow the work of the Royal Army Medical Corps and in particular young private John Langford who served as a stretcher bearer for the 3rd (South Midland) Field Ambulance.
John went to war without a gun — there to save lives, not take them.
Here we recount the battles and the horrors that John experienced in the war, as we see the incredible risks the stretcher bearers made every day to help preserve the lives of their fellow soldiers.
