A gripping story of friendship and division in the midst of warfare, set against one of the most dramatic, dangerous, and crucial campaigns of World War II: D-Day and the Battle of Normandy.

They went to war as boys. Will they make it home as men?

D-Day. June 6th, 1944. The trajectory of the Second World War and with it the course of modern history is changed for ever. For three young former schoolmates from South Wales, their war is only just beginning.

Mark, just nineteen, must lead a platoon of infantrymen into battle.

And Bill, always something of a loner, sees the heart of the fighting as a private soldier.

These young men, and thousands of others, are part of one of the bloodiest and most brutal episodes of the whole Normandy campaign: the battle for Hill 112. The horror, the fear, the filth; the sava
