they were called long time stays because they were planning on ataying for a long time
Reserve trenches were used as supplies for the trenches out the front. In world war one, they had come up with a technique of hiding in trenches before they fight. To do this properly, they had made them zig-zags. The trenches on the front line were where the soldiers would fight from. Reserve trenches were used in case these people had anything happen to them and they needed to use more trenches and more men. Throughout the war, the conditions of the front line trenches became worse as the communication and reserve trenches improved. I hope that helped :)
Siegfried Line. It was called the Hindenburg Line by the Allies. Siegfried Line. It was called the Hindenburg Line by the Allies.
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.

They were the western front. But the different trenches were front line trenches, communication trenches.
Communication trenches (for runners).
During World War I, "support trenches" were found throughout the theaters of the war wherever trench-lines were constructed. Running perpendicular and parallel both to the main defense-line trenches, support trenches enabled front-line troops to communicate with each other, receive supplies, and organize for coming battles without being in the line of fire of the enemy across the (often quite narrow) "no man's land" between enemy lines.
During World War I, but also true for any conflict in which trench-warfare is a staple, the battle line (or lines) running behind the German trenches was usually utilized as either a complementary defense line or as a communication conduit. Trenches such as these were used for all manner of purposes during the conflict in support of the trench-line that directly faced the enemy's foremost line of trenches.
trenches were complex, comprising of many lines all connected by communication and reinforcment trenches running perpendicular to the line 1st line. dummy trenches 2nd line. first line of men, this is where the real frontline was. 3rd line. reserves on call and officers 4th line. communications beyond. reinforcements in close village and artillery ready for bombardment

Trench warfare used several different types of trenches. Firing trenches were used by soldiers to protect themselves while firing their weapons at their enemy. Cover trenches were often built next to the firing trenches as a second line of defense in case the enemy captured the firing trench. Support trenches were used as rest areas for off-duty troops, who sometimes lived in dugouts excavated in the sides of the trench. A network of reserve and communications trenches was used to bring supplies and fresh troops to the front.
Reserve trenches were used as supplies for the trenches out the front. In world war one, they had come up with a technique of hiding in trenches before they fight. To do this properly, they had made them zig-zags. The trenches on the front line were where the soldiers would fight from. Reserve trenches were used in case these people had anything happen to them and they needed to use more trenches and more men. Throughout the war, the conditions of the front line trenches became worse as the communication and reserve trenches improved. I hope that helped :)
