Going over the top what did this mean in ww1?
When the whistle blew it was time for the soldiers to go 'Over the Top.' This meant leaving your trench and climbing over the top of the parapet to 'No Man's Land'. The men would get told the night before so that in the morning they were able to get up early and be ready for the fight on time. You would then go 'Over the Top' to 'No Man's Land'. You would return later on that day if you were lucky ... Some info on the British way of sending their men 'Over the Top': One method of attack the British used was sending men over the top. A group soldiers would go over there trenches and run across no man's land and capture the enemy's trenches. The problem with this idea was that by the time the men had gone over the top and were half way across no man's land they had all been either killed or were badly injured. Also many men were so afraid of going over the top that they were physically sick when the bell rung for them to go, as they knew it was a 95% chance they would die. This was mainly because they used knives and guns and not bombs and grenades before they 'went over' to soften up the enemy. This was the main technique of attack and it cost the British army the lives of millions of people. Even though this was killing most of their soldiers the British army never changed their method of attack.
