There were no trenches inKokodabecause they fought in the jungle. World War 1 (gallipoli) used trenches and it wasterrible. the soldiers were surrounded by dead bodies that had just been thrown down. also many would getdiseasessuch asmalaria. or there would be rats, mosquitoes, lice and many more just around and the soldiers would get sick from those. Also trench foot was a big one because after a while the soldiers boots would start to wear out and make holes so there feet would always be in the water. some soldiers trench foot was even permanent. I hope this helps!
Reserve trenches
Although popular belief is that Gallipoli is better than Kokoda, many like me and lachy and Amelia disagree. Gallipoli was half way across the globe and kokoda was much closer to home and Australia and an imminent invasion threat. Gallipoli was also a stupid failure while kokoda was a legend. As i like to say Gallipoli made Australia, Kokoda saved Australia. Cam xoxo Gossip girl <3
The Kokoda Track is a road in Papua New Guinea, famous for being the site of a World War II battle. There is much debate over whether it should be called the Kokoda Track or Kokoda Trail; however, in 1972, it officially became the Kokoda Trail.

It probably sucked...they were in trenches...and trenches collect water...people in the trenches were at risk of getting trench foot...and there were trench rats too....try sleeping in a cold damp muddy hole :)
Soldiers dug weapon pits for protection.

The movie Kokoda is correct and incorrect. There are a few things that seem to be incorrect. Like I don't think that a small cottage in the middle of the kokoda track would be found while walking.
