Trench warfare.
Two words: Trench Warfare.
A defensive fighting position (DFP) is a type of earthwork constructed in a military context, generally large enough to accommodate at least one person.a Trench would be more of Ditch but all trenches start from a individual fighting position and work their way up in stages, which are then connected with other positions to build a trench.
Trench warfare is where two armies are at war, and they both are fighting from trenches, or long ditches in the ground. It is a very old type of warfare, but it was at it climax in WWI. After that the ability to fight on the move known as "Mobility" made trench warfare out dated. It is still taught to some extent for defending a small position. But for the most part it has been abandoned. Check wikipedia for Trench Warfare. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trench_warfare
