Our War - Documentary Series Nov 11 | Watch Live & On Demand on STACKTV & Global TV App

This Remembrance Day, The HISTORY® Channel commemorates diverse heroes of World War I and II with the new Canadian Original docu-series, Our War. Over two, one-hour episodes premiering back-to-back on Friday, November 11 at 9 p.m. ET/PT, these epic lives are discovered by their descendants who investigate the harrowing secrets of each ancestor. Developed and produced by Lark Production’s award-winning team, Our War takes viewers on a real-life genealogical investigation that reveals the past through a younger generation.
Each story in Our War unfolds with a burning question that demands an answer. Whether it’s deciphering a deathbed confession or unearthing the truth behind a family legend - the series follows each descendent as they scour museums and archives, clue by clue, to unearth the harrowing secrets their kin took to the grave. Every mystery solved will uncover who each ancestor truly was, bringing their family members closer to understanding themselves.
The premiere episode begins with the great-great granddaughter of one of Canada’s first Black servicemen as she searches for a memorial plaque awarded to the next-of-kin of those killed in World War I. Through her search, she learns how her great-great grandfather found himself on the frontlines of Canada’s most famous battles, and is ultimately led to a poignant discovery about his sacrifice in the war. In the second episode, a teenaged descendant of legendary Onondaga Runner, Tom Longboat, learns of his ancestor’s valiant, yet little known, actions during The Great War. Initially bonding with Longboat over a shared love of sport, he eventually learns that his great-great-great grandfather was much more than just a runner.
