Plot
Veterans of the Second World War share their stories in each campaign. The levels are their flashbacks.

British Campaign
Oliver Jones, a former sergeant in the British Expeditionary Force, recounted his escape from northern France during May 1940. He, along with his peers, arrived at the British garrison in Calais and were instructed to protect the area until reinforcements arrive to take them back to Britain. Eventually, he succeeded and made it back home.

A retired RAF pilot named Harry Williams shared his story of defending the British isles from Luftwaffe pilots during the Battle of Britain. He recounted shooting down enemy bombers in the skies and ravaging their escorts.

A veteran of the Western Desert campaign in North Africa named Jack Harrington discussed the numerous missions he had been assigned. His first instance of active combat was during Operation Compass, in which the Western Desert Force counterattacked Italian positions in western Egypt. He remembered that he was promoted after that, and was later tasked with attacking Germano-Italian troops in eastern Libya, but was forced to engage in a strategic retreat. He later controlled a Valentine tank and destroyed enemy armoured vehicles in Tobruk, the Libyan capital during Operation Crusader. He then participated in the Second Battle of El Alamein after being promoted once again.

An Indian sergeant tasked with protecting Malaysia from the Japanese, named Arjun Singh, recounted his capture in February 1942 and his role in the defence. He first saw enemy boats in the distance, and opened fire with his light machine gun. Eventually, their numbers were so great that he had to retreat. However, he got captured and was transferred to a Japanese POW camp. He later joined the Indian National Army sponsored by the Japanese who prompted British control of India to stop. However, he deserted and escaped to a British Indian Army base, where he was later captured. It then cuts to 4 years later, in which he stood trial for treason in Delhi as part of the famous Indian National Army trials, known simply as the Red Fort Trials. He was asked to speak about his experience, so that he could be found either guilty, or not guilty. After realising that he entered the Indian National Army forcefully and under pressure from the Japanese, he was acquitted and spent the rest of his life in Amritsar, and would just a year later see the independence of India.

A British Army sergeant named George Smith told of his participance in the Battle of Caen in northwestern France as part of Operation Overlord in Normandy. Toting a submachine gun, he traversed through the rubbles of the town and engaged German resistance.

A British airborne division trooper named Charlie Wilson recounted his capture in Arnhem, Netherlands under Operation Market Garden. As he descended into the town via the parachute, German troops closed in on him, and he held out for as long as he could until he was captured. He was transferred to a POW camp in Wesel, northwestern Germany near the Dutch border. He remembered that he was freed after the Allies liberated the area during March 1945.

Indian sergeant Rahul Kumar discussed about his involvement in the China-Burma-India theatre of the war and his combat in the Sittang Bend in the Pegu mountain range in Burma. He wielded a sniper rifle and cleared out Japanese forces stationed in the area that were waiting to leave for Thailand as an evacuation measure. The enemy forces were then cut off and were captured.

American Campaign
A chief petty officer of the US Navy named Liam Johnson talked about his role in the war in the Pacific as a carrier-based pilot. He remembered his bombing of Japanese aircraft carriers in the Coral Sea and his defensive operations around Midway atoll. He also recounted his involvement in the Battle of Leyte Gulf, arguably the largest naval battle in the entire war.

James Miller, a sergeant in the US Army, discussed his role in Operation Torch in French North Africa and what took place. As part of the 2nd Armoured Division, he landed in the city of Casablanca and participated in fighting there.

A USMC sergeant named Henry Brown recounted the attrition warfare in Guadalcanal, an island in the southwestern Pacific. He landed there as part of the 1st Marine Division in August 1942, and cleared out jungles infested with Japanese troops lurking in the shadows.

Jacob Davis, a technician (now specialist) in the US Army, remembered his role as a squad gunner in southern Italy and the ensuing stalemate in the region. His group managed to pierce the Gustav Line in Monte Cassino and took out swathes of Axis troops.

A US Army sergeant named Mason Smith in the V Corps recounted the Normandy landings of June 1944. After he was deployed, he quickly took cover and crawled towards the enemy machine gun. He then threw a grenade to disable it, with good success. He remembered that later in the year, he prevented the German counterattack in the Ardennes forest in December. In a snowy day, artillery fire came right from the blue and took the entire squad with surprise. They then held out in Bastogne, and were rescued by reinforcements. The last German offensive had been halted.

Another sergeant in the US Army, this time from the 1st Infantry Division and named Thomas Williams, remembered the inland advance into France after capturing the beaches. One such event took place in Saint-Lô, a small town in Normandy located directly south of the beaches. There, he took his sniper rifle and cleared the area of German troops.

Lastly, a sergeant named Alexander Anderson in the USMC recounted his combat in the barren island of Iwo Jima, attacking Japanese fortifications set up around the piece of volcanic rock. He recalled the battle as "gritty and abominable."

Soviet Campaign
The story is narrated by a political commissar named Yuri Petrenko who talked about the various Red Army soldiers he had heard about.

First of all, there was Alexander Smirnov, a sergeant in the 7th Mechanised Corps stationed in Smolensk as of July 1941. He recounted his battle report mentioning Alexander as "an exceptional marksman". As far as Yuri was told by his superiors, Alexander defected to the Wehrmacht. However, Yuri's imagination believed otherwise. He had leaked documents from the Politburo that classified all captured soldiers as traitors. He believed that was what happened to Alexander and the other soldiers he had yet to mention.

Sergei Vasilyev was stationed in Kiev as part of the 5th Red Banner Army, and he was inflicting casualties on the enemy troops with his machine gun, when a grenade showed up and brought him to kingdom come.

Dmitry Kuznetsov was a member of the reserve 24th Army sent to Moscow to defend it from the Germans. He succeeded in the battle and pushed back the German forces after their vehicles jammed due to the cold weather.

Alexey Sokolov was said to be the rather ordinary, run-of-the-mill soldier who lacked special qualities. He was in Kharkov as part of the 21st Army when a Wehrmacht attack took place and he was captured.

Andrey Popov was said in the battle report to be a master at CQB combat and wiped out enemy units at close range with ease in Tver oblast, a few kilometres west of Moscow. However, he was eliminated with a sniper round to the forehead.

Viktor Ivanov was recognised across the USSR for being a "true hero in the situation of combat". As far as he knew, he was in Stalingrad along with the 62nd Army when the German advance towards the Caucasus began in late 1942. He survived the onslaught and resisted the battle of attrition that ensued in December and January.

Evgeny Kozlov commanded a T-34-85 tank in Kursk and destroyed several German armoured vehicles before his tank exploded because of a Panzerschreck rocket launcher.

Ivan Novikov was deployed to German-occupied Belarus as part of the 3rd Byelorussian Front and crushed the German Army Group Centre. His role in the squad level was that of a gunner.

Mikhail Petrov was present in the liberation of Warsaw and the Battle of Berlin. He steamrolled enemy resistance with ease due to the attrition taking a toll on the Wehrmacht. He was the one who planted the Soviet flag on top of the Reichstag (the German parliament building).

After reviewing the reports, Yuri was arrested for viewing classified documents (the order that brandished captured Red Army personnel as traitors) and was executed by firing squad in secret. From this point on, he became an "unperson" under Stalin's regime.

German Campaign
A German sergeant named Karl Müller who served in France and in the Eastern Front discussed his experience. He participated in Fall Gelb (Case Yellow), in which France was quickly overtaken by Germany. He was in Sedan, a city in northeastern France when his division was encircling Allied forces in the south and the west. 3 years later, he was participating in the Battle of Kursk as an MG 42 gunner, and was knocked out by an artillery strike. Müller recalled that he had been freed after the war by the Soviets.

Hans Schmidt, a Luftwaffe fighter ace, talked about aerial combat in the Battle of Britain early in the war. He remembered flying a Bf 109 and escorting Luftwaffe bombers into southeastern England. He was shot down over Kent, but survived via a parachute and was subsequently captured. He was released at the war's end.

Ludwig Hoffmann considered himself to be lucky, as he had been through the street-fighting in Stalingrad and managed to make it out alive. He was a member of the 6th Army that fought in Kiev and Stalingrad. In 1941, he had participated in the Battle of Kiev, a landslide victory for Germany and a humiliating defeat for the USSR. 11 months later, the 6th Army advanced to the Caucasus region in southern Russia and attempted to take over Stalingrad, but after months of fighting, Ludwig got cut off from his group. Fortunately for him, he managed to regroup with the team and continued fighting in pockets of resistance until the German surrender in February 1943. He, along with tens of thousands other soldiers, was marched to the gulags of Siberia but managed to survive and was one of the fortunate 5,000 out of 90,000 that were repatriated to Germany.

An Afrika Korps veteran named Hermann Schneider recalled defending the recently-conquered city of El Alamein in late 1942. He drove a Panzer IV tank into the outskirts and defeated swarms of British infantry and armoured vehicles. He managed to strategically retreat westward towards Libya along with the rest of his group. The group was later transferred to Italy, and then back to Germany, where he remained stationary and didn't see combat.

Heinrich Schulz, a German sergeant who was present in Omaha beach in Normandy, northwestern France during June 1944 recalled shooting down waves after waves of Allied troops landing in the beach. Eventually, his machine gun ran out of ammo and he retreated inland with other remaining defenders. Eventually though, he was captured by the US Army and was held in Eisenhower's POW camps, where he recalled being "almost starved to death". He was later released after the end of the war.

A 5th Panzer Army sergeant named Alfred Becker remembered his participance in the Battle of the Bulge and the guerrilla tactics he employed by hiding among the vegetation. He recalled attacking the town of Bastogne, albeit unsuccessfully. He was taken prisoner by the US Army, which released him shortly after the war's end.

Friedrich Schäfer discussed his westward retreat towards the Western Allies and his evasion of Soviet patrol. Armed with a submachine gun, he took down Red Army personnel encroaching in their direction and eventually made it to Lüchow in British-administered Germany and surrendered. He was released after the war.

Japanese Campaign
The campaign is told by the relatives of deceased servicemen.

Itsuki Satō was an IJN Air Service pilot who had flown several missions in various locations around the Pacific. His first combat experience was the bombing of Pearl Harbour, Hawaii in December 1941 while he was flying a Nakajima B5N bomber. After that, he had also fought in the Coral Sea, in while he flew an Mitsubishi A6M Zero and shot down US Navy bombers. He also fought above Midway atoll in an Aichi D3A bomber and sunk some US Navy vessels, but after heavy casualties on the Japanese side, he had to retreat back to Wake Island. 2 years later, he would participate in the Battle of Leyte Gulf and would fly from the aircraft carrier Zuikaku. He shot down a few US Navy planes, albeit a negligible amount, and later performed a kamikaze attack on a US Navy cruiser, killing himself with very little damage to the cruiser, rendering his sacrifice useless.

Ichika Watanabe was an army sergeant and participated in the Battle of Bataan, in which Japan won a huge victory against the USA. He was however wounded in the battle and die of blood loss.

Hinata Yamamoto was aboard the Yukizake, a destroyer in the Coral Sea when Allied ships approached. He manned a naval gun and destroyed some ships with success, and the battle was over. He was the only surviving playable Japanese soldier in the game.

Haruki Tanaka was part of the defence in Guadalcanal and brandished a sniper rifle. He shot several USMC servicemen and managed to hold out until his capture and his death in captivity due to starvation.

Arata Itō was an IJA sergeant and was stationed in central-eastern China with the objective of advancing westwards. He cleared the area of Chinese troops when suddenly he was killed by a Chinese soldier wielding a Dao sword.

Haruto Katō was in Iwo Jima during the battle in early 1945. He manned a machine gun and after failure, he retreated inland and hid inside a foxhole when a grenade was thrown inside that killed him instantly.

Tomoharu Yamaguchi fought in Okinawa and was engaged in several bayonet charges with great effect. However, he found himself in the path of a flamethrower and got incinerated.

The relatives of the deceased soldiers conclude that they had died for a lost cause and that they have sacrificed themselves for a worthless war.
