Possible New Historical Story??

Hello everyone! I haven't posted anything in a while, I'm sorry! Stuff has been busy and with this new post hopefully I will be posting more.

I recently saw the movie Dunkirk and this is mainly what has inspired me but also other historical books such as Alex & Eliza by Melissa De La Cruz. When I saw Dunkirk I was amazed and horrified. They produced it so well it felt like you were there, me seeing it in IMAX probably helped to, but the point it it felt like I was there. Even thinking about it now fills me with emotions. The movie is about the Evacuation of Dunkirk during WWII. This was when Allied troops were cornered at Dunkirk beach and the Axis were coming in from all sides. Their only way out was by boat. In this movie they showed some of the horrible ways people died then. Oil fires. Drowning. Being shot. Being blown up. It was horrific, but that's how it went down. Over 10,000 men died.

Now to my idea. Many stories romanticize or get the facts wrong. I want to make a historical story that is blunt and exactly what happened. I want to find and unknown soldier from a war and make their story known. Exactly what happened. I don't want to add in parts that aren't real just to add a bunch of plot twists like many do. I want to be able to make someone's story know and show people how horrible yet great humanity can be.

I'd love if you could tell me what you think, put in your input, and maybe even give me ideas, wars, or historical moments you think I should look into. Thank y'all for reading! :D
