Meet Walter Tull, the Jackie Robinson of professional English football before World War I, and survivor of the worst racial slurs his opponents can hurl at him. When the game turns to war in 1914 and the playing field to the Battle of Somme, Tull makes history again as the first mixed-race officer in the British Army.
