- The lives of a dozen Australian soldiers who served in the ANZACs. Fighting first at Gallipoli in 1915, then on the Western Front for the remainder of WWI, it's the story of the hardships, camaraderie and casualties of war.
- With the defeat of the German offensive, and the entry of the USA in the war ('The Yanks are coming'), the ANZAC'S gear up for the final Allied offensive against the Germans. Meanwhile, Monash is appointed Commander of the five Australian Divisions of ANZAC. The Battle of Hamel is shown. The "Jack ups" are featured, as well as Monash's Big Push (on August 8, 1918), all of which leads to the end of the war in the fairly anti-climatic Armistice of November 11, 1918. Afterword, the surviving members of ANZAC travel back home to Australia to deal with their new lives now being out of the army and the war.
- The ANZAC supported assault during the Third Battle of Ypres bogs down (in November 1917). Morale begins to sag from the attrition. Then in March 1918, the Germans launch the last-ditched 'Spring Offensive', leading to brutal defensive battles of Amiens, Hazebrouk, and the Battle of Nieppe Forest.
