The enormous casualties suffered on the Western Front proved the destructive power of modern weapons. Machine guns mowed down waves of soldiers. The shrapnel, or flying debris from artillery shells, killed or wounded even more soldiers than the guns. Poison Gas blinded or choked its victims or caused agonizing burns and blisters. Then tanks, airplanes and submarines were very effective during the war.
