Trench WarfareTrench Warfare
Trench Warfare
•Both sides began to construct deep trenches protected by machine guns & barbed wire.
•Parallel lines of trenches soon stretched from the English Channel to Switzerland
•Opposing forces were only separated by 25m in some areas.
•Trench warfare dominated the battlefields of WWI.
No-Man's Land
•The space between the trenches was called "No-man's Land" because it did not belong to either side.
•Most of the time the soldiers could only peep at it through tiny holes in defences. It was a horrible sight with dead bodies stuck in the barbed wire, broken trees and big holes caused by explosions.
Sergeant Harry Roberts, Lancashire Fusiliers, interviewed after the war.
• If you have never had trench feet described to you. I will tell you. Your feet swell to two or three times their normal size and go completely dead. You could stick a bayonet into them and not feel a thing. If you are fortunate enough not to lose your feet and the swelling begins to go down. It is then that the intolerable, indescribable agony begins. I have heard men cry and even scream with the pain and many had to have their feet and legs amputated
