Synopsis
British Army footage from the Somme: troops move into the trenches near Fricourt and Mametz, artillery lays down a barrage, and the Lancashire Fusiliers attend services before the attack. Infantry advance after the bombardment, the wounded are carried back, prisoners are brought in, and the dead are buried.
