Best Answer

The Western Front, the result of the German Army and the British (and French) Armies being totally exhasted, was a matter if living in trenches in the ground while occasional incompetent commanders forced groups of soldiers to 'attack' the other side. The sanitary and living conditions were horrible, the trenches frequently containing up to 3 or 4 feet of water.

Given that both armies were dug in, there was little incentive to plan real tactical attacks on the other side.

How do you avoid your parents fighting?

This may not be an exact factual answer, and this may not be what you should do in certain situations but i learned that sometimes telling them that they are fighting in front of you and you don't like it can sort of snap them out of the argument and almost get them to avoid you when they're fighting
