When we think of the Western Front, we think of the trenches of mud, gunfire, and death. But there was another side to the war - the quieter spaces just behind the lines. In this episode, we explore life in those rear areas - the routines, the rest, the brief moments of humanity - and some of the choices men made in the face of exhaustion and uncertainty.
