The poignant last wishes of thousands of soldiers killed in the First World War are being made available to view online, after they have lain unseen for almost a century.
The hand-written wills of 230,000 soldiers who fought for the British Empire have been placed on a new website where their descendants can view them for the first time.
Many of the wills are accompanied by deeply personal letters penned by the doomed soldiers and intended for loved ones back home that were never posted.
