A WW1 trench was constructed by first selecting a suitable location, often in a zigzag pattern to minimize enemy fire exposure. Soldiers would dig out the earth using shovels and pickaxes, creating a deep and wide trench with a parapet for protection against incoming fire. The walls were often reinforced with sandbags, wooden planks, or barbed wire, and the trench system included communication trenches, dugouts for shelter, and areas for storage and sanitation. This labor-intensive process could take weeks and was crucial for providing protection and strategic advantage in the battlefield.
