VERDUN: I SURVIVED THE HELL OF 1916 | A Soldier's Eyewitness Account

Описание: History records dates and battles, but it rarely captures the raw, visceral terror of being there. Step into the boots of Jean-Louis Bouchard, a young French soldier thrust into the inferno of Verdun – the longest and one of the deadliest battles in human history.

In February 1916, the world watched as France clung to a small limestone ridge called Verdun, gambling its very soul against the relentless German war machine. Through Jean's first-person perspective, you will experience the deafening Trommelfeuer, the desperate struggles along La Voie Sacrée, the claustrophobic horror inside Fort Vaux, and the soul-crushing attrition that turned men into ghosts and landscapes into lunar wastelands. This isn't just a historical recap; it's a journey into the heart of a conflict that broke a generation and reshaped the modern world.
