Remove the classes d-none d-md-block from all of the carousel-caption classes, the class d-none gives the caption a display of none and the class d-md-block gives it a display of block for md and above screens.

Note: you may need to adjust the text size on smaller screens to make everything fit if you have a lot of text in your captions.
