Best Answer

The soldiers would play games of cards (if they were lucky to have a set.) Others would write letters home, and also read letters their families have sent. Some prayed day and night for life. They all sang silly songs and watched silly show/performances to keep spirits high.
the soldiers were either sleeping or merely fighting it was tough times and they could not just stay still sometimes they would try and makes the trenches cleaner as the had to be under very under hygeinic standards which led to trench foot and rats caused by dead corpses
