Soldiers who lived in the trenches during World War I faced harsh and unsanitary conditions, leading to numerous health issues such as trench foot, dysentery, and respiratory diseases. They endured constant exposure to the elements, limited food supplies, and the psychological toll of war, including shell shock (now known as PTSD). The threat of enemy fire and gas attacks added to their perilous situation, making trench warfare a grueling and traumatic experience. Many soldiers also formed strong bonds with their comrades, relying on each other for support amidst the chaos.
He didn't live in the trenches with all his soldiers he lived in a fancy house away from the front line meaning he didn't get killed if a invasion happened :( x
British trenches were miserable; people lived under constant threat of being hit by gunfire or exploding shells. Disease was also rampant, as soldiers had little protection from cold and rain.
Because the deep trenches protected them from bullets and shell fragments that were fired at the soldiers and so that the soldiers could be be seen (as targets).
in the trenches
In World War I, soldiers lived and slept in narrow, cramped trenches that were often muddy and unsanitary. These trenches were dug into the ground to provide some protection from enemy fire and the elements. Soldiers typically slept on makeshift wooden platforms or directly on the ground, often using their uniforms or blankets for warmth. Due to the harsh conditions, rest was frequently interrupted by combat duties and the threat of enemy attacks.

A correct but simplified answer:Because of the invention of machine guns and rapid firing and accurate artillery any person who was visible to the opposing side Died. To protect themselves the soldiers dug trenches to hide in.
The soldiers would hide in the trenches and fire at the enemy.
Trenches were large ditches (hence "trench") dug into the ground. Soldiers would group together in trenches during battle and operate out of them as they attempted to take the enemy trenches.
