About
This documentary tells the story of the Royal Newfoundland Regiment -- of its beginnings as a band of volunteers, who quite literally started with nothing, to build themselves into a properly equipped battalion; of its initiation into the rigours of trench warfare in Gallipoli; of its near annihilation at the tragic and bungled Battle of Beaumont Hamel in France; of its regrouping to distinguish itself in other significant battles throughout the war; and of what was perhaps the ultimate honour -- the awarding of the prefix "Royal" to the regiment by the British War Office before the war was even over.
