To protect themselves the soldiers dug trenches to hide in.
soldiers lived in the trenches, you could only be a soldier if you weren't a farmer
There is no answer to that question as there were thousands of soldiers in WW1 but don't know how many in trenches. Plus it depends if you ment British soldiers or soldiers as a generally.
The soldiers would hide in the trenches and fire at the enemy.
Lice lived on the humans and damned big well fed rats lived on the humans both dead and alive .
the typical day for the soldiers was when they had to stay in their trenches because it was snowing and it was freezing outside
British trenches were miserable; people lived under constant threat of being hit by gunfire or exploding shells. Disease was also rampant, as soldiers had little protection from cold and rain.
Because the deep trenches protected them from bullets and shell fragments that were fired at the soldiers and so that the soldiers could be be seen (as targets).
The soldiers themselves dug out the trenches.
The trenches were in the front lines of the war zone, they were dug by the soldiers who then both fought from and lived in these trenches for long periods of time. They were small but not as small as we would think. They were dug in a zigzag pattern so that if an enemy breached the defenses and entered the trench he would not be able to kill a lot of soldiers since they would not be in a straight line.
It was a 'chicken and egg' situation. One side's soldiers were in the trenches to stop the other side's soldiers in their trenches from getting any advantage,.
No. The soldiers did not bathe unless it rained and they bent to the bathroom in the trenches.
