The incredible story of the men and women who created the complex and heroic medical infrastructure that saved so many lives during the First World War, from the stretcher bearer on the frontline whose hands bore the scars of splintering, rotting handles to the surgeon working 36 hour stints in makeshift operating tents and the nurses jolted along ambulance trains, caring for patients day and night; as well as those who served and fought and could not have survived without the medical personnel's care.
