What was a nickname for a World War 2 fighting position?
Foxhole. Every soldier carried an "entrenching tool", which was a combination folding pick and shovel. Any time the soldiers stopped, other than to take ten while marching, they began to dig in. This was the only way they could get out of the enemy's fire and avoid the shellbursts of enemy artillery. When ambushed by the enemy, if they were pinned down, they'd work out their entrenching tool and begin to dig in where ever they were. Every night, if they had moved during the day, as evening came on they had to dig themselves a hole, after an exhausting day of walking and fighting. Then they'd have to stay awake half the night in it, taking their turns watching for the enemy. The WWII soldiers were extremely tired people. The similarity of the foxhole to the grave was not lost on the soldiers.
Do we still use trenches now in war?

In the modern day sandbags and Tesco Bastions tend to be preferred to dug trenches. Quite possibly because they are more suited to desert and mountainous terrain.
