This documentary series goes beyond the military history books and presents the most compelling personal accounts of war as seen through the eyes of those closest to the action, the rank-and-file soldiers, sailors, marines and airmen. Each episode features a single battle in a war, from WW2 to Operation Iraqi Freedom. The stories are brought vividly to life through on-camera testimony of the actual participants, their diaries, letters, and never-before-seen personal photographs and home movies. Battlefield Diaries presents the fears, heartbreak, inner struggles, and triumphs of the most ordinary people who in one unforgettable moment experienced the most extraordinary test of the human spirit.
