About this listen

A story from Night in the Front Line, a collection of Second World War short stories. 'I Had to Go Sick' tackles army bureaucracy as we follow an unnamed narrator through the army medical system during WW2 and the mounting ridiculousness of the rules and regulations for soldiers to be declared fit for service.
