Durante la Primera Guerra Mundial se libraron muchas y muy variadas batallas, todas ellas brutales, sangrientas y devastadoras, y cada una a su propia manera. Cada batalla tuvo sus victorias y sus derrotas, sus éxitos y sus fracasos. Hubo héroes concretos en ambos bandos, también acciones heroicas de batallones enteros. Hubo hombres que lucharon hasta el final más amargo, y murieron en los embarrados campos de Francia. Sus cuerpos nunca se recuperaron, y los lugares de su descanso eterno permanecieron sin ningún tipo de señal ni recuerdo durante más de un siglo.
