Synopsis
Its a war poem about 600 soldiers of the Light Brigade who were commanded to charge or fight into the valley of death where the enemies were all ready. There were guns and cannons all around them, to the left, to the right and in front of them. As the soldiers rode into the valley, they were attacked on all sides. Still the soldiers rode on bravely into the valley and attacked the enemies they saw. They were attacked just as badly at all side. Many of these soldiers died. It was in the line of duty and nobody protested when the order was given for them to ride into the valley of death.
