Probably one of the best parts of this series. Sadly, a main reason is because it lacks the distracting "hip" music that plagues other segments.

Briseur De Lance This is the British Army,they would NEVER allow such a thing to be done.Dimming of bright ware yes,but not removal.We know this as when bodies from WW1 are recovered in Europe to this day,the first thing they look for are the insignia that indicate what regiment/rank the individual is from.The metal insignia and other metal items being the only other items to survive apart from the bones.

He's a good actor.

That's s brilliant video, guy was an outstanding actor, so funny and genuine at the same time! God help me he wasn't too much different than some of the officers I've served with, good heart, empty head!

After watching 6 times I've decide this is the best thing on KZread. Lads lads lads

This guy sounds like the WW1 version of Alan Partridge!!

That was well done. Gray laughs like the character Harold from the Red Green Show.

That was really good. Very well acted and touching!

love his description of the event that night! lol

This was that guy that did that "crazy night out" video before 😂😂😂

He's gotta be the new Joker! Great acting :-)

@tabitha donnelly 1916 by Motörhead

Beautiful video of truth and more or less honesty on what can really happen. Officers are usually more reserved no matter what country they come from it seems. Japan 1980s for me as single enlisted soldier than Iraq as an officer 18 years later.

Funniest acting I've ever seen on KZread. But I'm sure his story was oft repeated. No one wants to die a virgin.

What an amazing guy

Fucking love 1916, one of Motorhead's best

Poignant and a little heartbreaking.

Damian Clark toward the end of the war, your basic troops and officers had a mutual resoect for each other. The common clay knew that the officers were higher priority targets.

Jemp Hurr I never said there wasn't mutual respect (not just at the end of the war but throughout it and in general)... but they wouldn't have socialised together. They would've eaten separately, slept separately and when there was any respite from the frontline, the enlisted men and the officers would have spent that time separately... This separation is nothing to do with social class or lack of respect... it's practical, military discipline... There are, and always have been, good reasons why enlisted men and officers don't fraternize with one another.

this has over 100 more comments and 100,000 more views tha the average other WW1 uncut video. interesting.

shit! you made it on the BBC!!?

Very good video. The young actor is very good also. The right amount of nervousness and joking. Reminded me during my Navy times. Going on liberty with your shipmates. Laughing , bragging on your past conquests. In Istanbul a old lady plucking a chicken stopped to inspect our peckers also . Unfortunately when she held mine , I'll just say things got rather explosive! Totally missed her off. I thought she would do to me what she was doing to the chicken. LolTo be 18 again.

anyone else think this guy is like McKenzie Crook?

What's the song played here?

What the heck is a knocking shop

Very well made funny and poignant

Capt Brent meets 2nd Lt Cartwright.

Bravo, great job! Very believable and compelling bit of reimagined braggadocio. Tend to agree about homosexual sex (per comment) but that's not the kind of thing guys joke around about in general all-male company in this period, is it?

Completely false. Many personel records are freely available and you'll see that VD appears in most of those serving on the western front and there is absolutely no disciplinary action mentioned whatsoever, let alone a court martial.

Good narration, love the video. (The presenter somewhat resembles Freddie Mercury. Just kidding, hahaha!)🙂

I’m sure many of the WW1 young soldiers first sexual encounters were in French Brothels if given the chance.

are you hi?

Its a nice little story but I want evidence that officers socialised with the rank and file, back in those days most officers were public school boys and the rank and file were working class and never the twain would meet, the class system still exisited in the trenches

Why does this exist?

"only officer in town" . "but then my pal victor came" . Am i the only one who is bothered by this ?
