Behind the lines, there were some support trenches. Pre-war buildings, some damaged from previous battles or stray shells could be found behind the lines of both sides, along with the the shell-pocked remnants of old battlefields. Yet out of the range of shellfire, and of the route of advancing enemy forces, the landscape remained largely the same.

There were makeshift hospitals and dressing stations where the wounded were tended. Many women worked in these hospitals. They belonged to the 'Voluntary Aid Detachments' and 'The First Aid Nursing Auxiliary' As the war went on, more and more men were needed to fight, the generals decided that women could do the other jobs in the army such as cooking, typing and nursing which previously men had done. So in 1917, 'The Woman's Army Auxiliary Corps' was set up.
