Sleeping in the trenches was horrible. It was dirty, sweaty, smelly, and crouded. It got hard to breathe at times and many people got ill which meant that there were many germs in the air. Soldiers would have to practicly sleep on top of each other which meant that they had a very uncomfertable nights sleep.
Hope this helps! x
