In the trenches Steve says the battalion has been there a year. British battalions were put forward into the front trenches for a few days at a time then sent to the rear for recovery and rest. By the end of the War in 1918, the fighting is much more mobile. In German advances around April 1918 (Spring Offensive) British and French positions were pushed back several miles. And after July the Allies, reinforced with US troops and using improved tactics and tanks, have been advancing miles at a time in what is known as the "Hundred Days Offensive".
