Narrator

If history only remembers one in a thousand of us, then the future will be filled with stories of who we were and what we did.

— Battlefield 1  ·  2016

What it means

Our interpretation.

The closing narration asks how a vast conflict might survive in memory through the lives of a few individuals. Its hope rests in people’s stories rather than the survival of weapons or battlefields. The retained Remember Us transcript supplies the singular “thousand”, correcting the discovery list’s transcription error.
