The characters were all completely different in age, size and attitude. This made it interesting from the beginning, as I wasn?t sure how they would gel together as a regiment to perform as a soldier to the best of their ability. We are introduced to Osborne first. He is around forty-five, tall with well trimmed grey hair, also deputy to the Commander, Stanhope. We hear a lot about Stanhope before we meet him from the conversation Osborne and Hardy (a commander that seemed to know Stanhope rather well from the past) had together when Osborne arrived at the Front.

In my opinion, Trotter did well to ignore the war, but this meant he became very much independent of the group?s natural bonding. Last of all there was Hibbert. He was a rather interesting but dissapointing character. He felt that he had had enough stress and decided to fake illness to be allowed home.

Many people who are against uniforms say that uniforms take ...
