What Happened During The Battle Of The Somme? (1916) - Real footage - WW1 - Full Documentary
July 1, 1916, 7:30 a.m. In the Somme, 500,000 French and British launched themselves, on a 40 km front, into the most senseless offensive of an absurd war. With 35 kg on their backs and forbidden to run or throw themselves to the ground, they walk towards the end like in a parade. In one morning, 60,000 men fell.
