Trenches during World War I were typically lit using a combination of oil lamps, candles, and later, electric lights in some cases. Soldiers often relied on lanterns fueled by kerosene or other oils for illumination, as they provided a portable and relatively safe light source. Open flames were kept to a minimum due to the risk of enemy snipers and the potential for fires in the tightly packed and often damp conditions of the trenches. Additionally, the use of dim lighting helped maintain a level of concealment from enemy observation.
