How do you find your away around the trench system?

Soldiers who were new to the trenches of World War I quickly learned their way around the trench system.

The formulaic nature of trench construction made it fairly easy for soldiers to find their way around.


Did the trenches in World War 1 have a hierarchy?

There were differences in the function and importance of trenches. The first one (closest to the enemy) was also called the Front Line or the Fire Line. A 100 yards behind it you had the support trench and again some 100 yards behind, the reserve trench. And then you had the connecting trenches, who were just there so you could get from one trench to the other. There wasn't a real 'hierarchy' anmong trenches: the front line was most important for fighting, but the other two were important for their support facilities, radio and command rooms and as places for soldiers to rest from front line duties.
