Because of the pandemic, we have not been able to publish episodes of On the Homefront for a while. But don’t worry, we’re working on a new episode, which should arrive in your subscription box this spring. Now, we have made an On the Homefront episode which offers some great context to this episode on Women in the Soviet Armies. It is about (the myth of) Soviet Gender Equality, and you can watch it right here: https://youtu.be/zLcHbUrnl6Q
