Dr Bob takes you back in time to see what it was really like to be a Trench Raider in World War I.
The recruitment posters in London promised a clean, civilized war. They lied. You are a nineteen-year-old soldier trapped in the freezing, rat-infested mud of the Western Front. The artillery never stops. The industrial slaughter of 1916 has turned the French countryside into a churning meat grinder. But tonight, the modern war vanishes. You are drafted for a mission across No Man's Land. Armed only with knuckle dusters, a trench knife, and a sharpened shovel, you infiltrate the German lines. You must operate in pitch-black silence to capture a live prisoner. But when the alarm sounds there is nowhere to run. Will you be able to survive?
