Original Note:
The men who served during WW1 didn’t spend the entire time fighting, and would find ways to pass the time away from the front lines. One common pastime was the “concert party” where the lack of women meant the men took on any female roles. These soldiers were not “drag queens.” https://www.iwm.org.uk/history/voices-of-the-first-world-war-wartime-leisure-and-entertainment
