Why You Wouldn’t Survive as a WWII Truck Driver | History For Sleep

Get early episodes & ad-free audio on Patreon: https://patreon.com/DrowsyHistorianTonight on Drowsy Historian, you're not a general, a hero, or even a soldier anyone remembers. You're a WWII truck driver — a man with no armor, no weapon, and a barely running vehicle, hauling supplies across every front and through every hell the war could conjure. From the frozen wastes of Russia to the suffocating heat of North Africa, you drive through snipers, air raids, hallucinations, and machine failure — and no one ever writes your name down. There are no medals for getting the bullets there. Just exhaustion, silence, and a truck that never quite stops groaning.So lie back, let the engine rumble, and fade into the forgotten roadways of history.🛏️ Drowsy Historian’s Favorite Sleep ToolsLooking to upgrade your nighttime routine?
