Trench Warfare - WWIBasic Info
New weapons used were more for defense; so trenches were made for the soldiers protection.
There are two sides Middle = No Man’s
Land.

Diary Entry #3 – October 1914
You’ve started to dig and setup trenches on the Western Front. Describe how trench warfare was setup and why this system was used.
Explain “No Man’s Land”
![Page 11: Germany – Red Great Britain – White - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070400/568134ab550346895d9bbd6d/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
When a soldier went ‘over the top’ across No Man’s Land to attack theenemy he had to carry all of this equipment through the mud, barbed wires and crater holes made by mines. They had to make sure that they did not get shot at the same time.
Diary Entry #4 –
November 1914
You’ve experienced your first battle, explain what is was like to fight and carry your supplies

Trench Warfare: Conditions
Lice Rats Cramped up Flooded trenches Diseases – trench foot Decaying flesh

The trenches were wet and cold. The battalion
lived in mud and water.
Gum boots were provided for the troops in the most exposed positions.
Trench foot was still a new ailment and the provision of dry socks was vitally important.
Part of the trench was reserved for men to go two at a time, at least once a day, and rub each other's feet with grease.
![Page 16: Germany – Red Great Britain – White - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070400/568134ab550346895d9bbd6d/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
The outstanding feature of the
trenches was the extraordinary
number of rats. The trenches were
infested with them. It was
impossible to keep them out of the
dugouts. They grew fat on the food
that they stole from soliders, and
anything they could pick up in or
around the trenches; they were
HUGE!
Some were nearly as big as cats.
.
A full day's rest allowed us to clean up a bit, and to launch a full scale attack on lice. I sat in a quiet corner of a barn for two hours delousing myself as best I could.
We were all at it, for none of us escaped their vile attentions. The things lay in the seams of trousers, in the deep furrows of long thick woolly pants, and seemed impregnable in their deep entrenchments. A lighted candle applied where they were thickest made them pop like Chinese crackers. After a session of this, my face would be covered with small blood spots from extra big fellows which had popped
too vigorously.

Trench Warfare: Technology Tanks: Slow and clumsy Machine guns: Rapid fire,
made advancement difficult, caused stalemates
Airplanes: used to drop bombs and for air conflict
Poison Gas: caused blindness, blisters, some caused victims to choke to death

Christmas Truce 1914
![Page 22: Germany – Red Great Britain – White - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070400/568134ab550346895d9bbd6d/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
One of the most remarkable incidents in history was the
impromptu truce that took place on the Western Front on
Christmas Day 1914. Beginning late on Christmas Eve, the
entrenched British and German troops began serenading each
other with songs and carols. By the next day a full truce was on,
with soldiers and officers from both sides fraternizing and
exchanging gifts. There was even an international soccer match
played with teams comprised of warring soldiers. On December
26, 1914 the First World War started again. How sad. Ninety-
four years later, in 2008, soldiers from the same opposing
regiments reenacted the famous Christmas Truce in the same
location. (video – 3:06)
