About the archive

History is written by the ones who were counted.

The Forgotten Front tells the true stories of people whose courage history nearly forgot: the medic who would not carry a rifle, the scout who would not talk, the pilot who never came home.

We make films for YouTube, Facebook and TikTok, and this archive keeps every story together, with the sources behind it, free for anyone to watch and read.

What we have built, and what comes next.

Our YouTube channel, Forgotten War Heroes TV, began in 2026, telling one story at a time.

Phase 02 Complete

The archive

This website: every film and story in one place, with its sources.

Phase 03 Next

Family films

Private films made with families about their own relatives.

Phase 04 Ongoing

From one name to a finished file.

01 Find the story
A name comes from a citation, a memoir, a viewer’s message or a gap in the record.
02 Build the record
We gather the official citations, service records, memoirs and trusted histories, and note each one.
03 Check it
Where sources disagree on a number or a date, the story says so rather than picking the most dramatic version.
04 Publish and correct
Every story is free, with its sources listed. When we get something wrong, we fix it and say so.

Editorial standards

Sources on every fileEvery written story lists the records and books it is based on.

Uncertainty is statedWhen the evidence is incomplete or disputed, we say so.

Corrections in publicChanges are dated and noted at the foot of the story.

AI, used openlySome scenes in our films are animated or recreated with AI video tools, built from real photographs, and some narration uses an AI voice. The history, script and sources are researched and checked by people.
