🪖World War One:

You've been conscripted for the war…

Knock knock.

The dreadful sound makes you jump out of your skin as you sit there on the sofa.

Your mother, trembling a little more than you, quickly goes to answer the door.

Your whole family have been expecting the visit. Just like every other family in England. But a part of you thought maybe you would be different. You're not built for war.

You strain your ears to hear the conversation.
