Echos of War: WW1 Leg 4

Turn inland toward Amiens, a critical logistical hub.

WWI Context:

Amiens becomes vital for supplying Allied forces and later plays a key role in the final offensives of 1918.

The Somme — 1916

The war turns brutal. Massive offensives attempt to break the deadlock. At the Somme, thousands fall in a single day. The front barely moves.

The cost becomes unimaginable.
