My Story contains examples of:
- Been There, Shaped History: Every book is about how the protagonists contributed to important points in human history.
- First-Person Perspective: Each story is told from the perspective of its protagonist.
- Holiday Ceasefire: Near the end of The Trenches: Billy Stevens, The Western Front, both the British and German soldiers stopped their endless shelling of each other to celebrate a peaceful Christmas, even exchanging gifts by tossing them to eachother.
- Mundane Luxury: In The Trenches: Billy Stevens, The Western Front, while spending time at the main communications office to allow his arms to recover from the mustard gas burns, Billy finds himself REALLY happy to be eating hot food, and sleeping in an actual bed.
- Shrine to the Fallen: At the end of The Trenches: Billy Stevens, The Western Front, Billy states that a monument was put up in Carlisle wit the names of local men who died in the war. Except for Robert Matthews, who was executed as a deserter by British firing squad because he didn't want to charge the German soldiers, knowing he and his fellow soldiers wouldn't survive. Billy hates this because he felt Robert made the smart choice.
