The time required to dig trenches often depended on several factors, including the scale of the operation, the number of personnel involved, and the urgency of military needs. Soldiers were trained to excavate quickly and efficiently, utilizing tools like shovels and pickaxes. Additionally, the use of machinery and the prioritization of certain areas for trench digging allowed them to complete these tasks more rapidly. In many cases, trenches were dug during lulls in fighting or as part of a strategic preparation for upcoming battles.

How long did trenches take to dig?
The time it took to dig trenches during World War I varied depending on factors such as the type of terrain and the availability of tools and manpower. Typically, soldiers could dig about 2 to 3 feet of trench per day under combat conditions, but with more time and resources, deeper and more complex trenches could be constructed in a matter of weeks. Overall, complete trench systems could take several weeks to months to establish fully.

What were fox holes in the trenches?
Fox holes were not in the trenches. If you were caught in the open when an enemy barrage or bombardment came in you were in trouble. Your only chance would be to dig a hole big enough to get your body down below ground level very quickly, this is a fox hole. Often the only thing to dig with is a bayonet, it does not take as long as you think. Believe me, its amazing how quick you can do it when somebody is trying to kill you.
