Nissen Hut Anachronism

The first episode is set in France in 1915, and throughout this ep we see a Nissen Hut in the field hospital area.

The Nissen Hut was the British version of the Quonset Hut used by American and Allied forces years later in WWII.

Nissen Huts didn't exist in 1915. They were designed by British Major Peter Nissen in 1916, and they became a familiar sight all over the French countryside held by the Allies.

A minor anachronism to be sure.
