How was life in the trenches?

Life in trenches was horrible. There weren't clean places to sleep in or decent shelters and food. If they didn't have food they usually burned rats to eat them, soldiers were subjects to several diseases due to the water (in which they secreted feces and urine) floating around and the filthy smell of it. Their dead comrades were lying nearby without proper burial.


What is life like in the trenches for the typical British soldier?

For the soldiers life in the trenches was really tough. The soldiers shared there beds with mice and rats. Also it was not only summer whilst in the trenches it was also winter meaning frequent rain. This made the soldiers lives umbearable and gave them trench foot. Type that into the internet and you will see how horrific life for the soldiers realy was.


Are there any World War I trenches left to visit?

After the war the trenches went away as the land returned to its original uses, but I found a couple of them left that you can visit. One is Vieil Armand in Alsace, and the trenches were mostly carved in stone so they are well preserved. Also, World War 1 trenches in the Meuse have been restored to their original condition so that people can visit them. The German trenches there were built with concrete reinforcements, but the French trenches had filled in over the years and had to be dug out again.

What where the negative aspect of life in the trenches?

· they barly had enough space to sleep. I can see this because they are all sleeping on top of one another. · That they had to handle the barbed wire. This was a safety hazard because they could easily have pricked themselves and it may have got infected, as the condition were very poor (hygiene) Exposure to the weather--when it rained, the bottom of the trenches had water, the men were wet and cold with no relief.
