There is no way of knowing the answer to this question. No separate statistics were kept by any army on where the men died. Probably a great many of the men still listed as missing died there, and had their bodies obliterated or buried by subsequent shellfire. Generally there were only a few reasons men would be in No Mans Land - when they were trying to get across to attack the enemy trenches, either in a big attack, or a small scale trench raid, or on a wiring party to improve the barbed wire defenses in front of their own trenches at night. There was little scouting or patrol activity such as kept the soldiers of the next war petrified. There was no need, you knew where the enemy was. Most of the time the men quite sensibly stayed in their own trenches and kept their heads down. There are numerous accounts of men ordered "over the top" on a big attack or raid and passing by the uniform clad skeletons, or half decomposed men of previous efforts, and also of the nerve wracking experience of listening to a man left in No Mans Land, too badly wounded to crawl to safety, screaming for help, for water, for his mother. It could take several days for a man in this position to die.
During World War I, the first 14000 U.S. infantry troops land in France at the port of Saint Nazaire.
No man's landThe area between two trenches or lines of soldiers is known as "no man's land." This phrase was used in World War I to describe the area of land between fighting groups that no man wanted to enter for fear of being killed.
No, they either had to wait out the 'shellings' to be relieved by another squad, or to retreat. Often times soldiers would have a piece of bread in their pouch, which they could eat. Remember, No Man's land was the area between the trenches, so nobody was alive there anyways. You might mean in the trenches, on the front lines, for which the answer is the same.
A good topic of discussion would be the importance of the battle of the somme in 1916 for the allied victory. Many british soldiers died and very little land was gained. However a lot of historians claim that without the battle of the somme, Britain would not have won the war.
The phrase 'going over the top' - referred to the soldiers in the trenches climbing out and up to flat ground, and advancing towards the enemy over 'no-mans land'. Attacking the enemy's trenches~APEX
