This recording is from inside one of the many shelters carved into Monte Grappa, northern Italy, during World War 1, as soldiers cleared and protected a supply line through the mountains. It was a humbling experience to walk through these shelters, thinking of the huge effort it would have taken to make them in the first place, and the hardship endured on the mountains by those soldiers.
