One day during 1917, 16 years old Harry and Louis decided to go into town to purchase grocceries for their families, since their fathers were at war and their mothers were working.
Hey pal!
Hey bud!

JOIN THE ARMYIt's the men we want
1 week later... The day Harry and Louis leave for war
Harry the trains leaving in a minute. You ready?
I'm ready!
April 1917, the battle of Vimy Ridge. The French efforts were failing, and they needed assitance. So the Canadians came.
Frank, we have over 100,000 casualties. We aren't making any progress either
You're right Ed. We should ask the Canadians to help.
Weeks had passed, Harry and Louis had completed lots of training, preparing for battle. Meanwhile, back at the Canadian Corps...
Yes sir.
Attention soliders! We're heading to Vimy Ridge right away, to help France fight.
When we first joined the army Louis, I thought it would be fun and a chance to explore Europe. Was I ever wrong.
On the way to Vimy Ridge...
Same Harry. War isn't as glorious as I thought. I wanna go home, I miss my family
