Stories of the Great War
Welcome everyone. Many of you may know me better as Chris from Vlogging Through History. Since I started creating content for youtube I have found myself diving deeper and deeper into the history of the Great War, what we call World War 1 today. Not just the strategies and tactics of armies, but the stories of the men and women whose lives were upended by one of the most destructive and terrifying conflicts in history. That’s why this channel was born. A place to dive deeper into the stories of the men, the women, the units they were a part of, the acts of bravery, the moments of fear. The lives that were changed forever. To explore the places where they fought, and where they rest today. To explore the places where we remember. I hope you’ll join me on the journey. These are stories of the great war.
