Description:
'Wounded' traces a journey made by a casualty from the battlefield of the Western Front to a hospital in Britain. It is a story told through the testimony of those who cared for him - stretcher bearers and medical officers, surgeons and chaplains, often mentally and physically unprepared and frequently on the verge of collapse nurses - from the aid post in the trenches to the casualty clearing station and the ambulance train back to Blighty.
