What did soldiers take with them in World War 1 in the trenches?

Firstly, and most importantly, soldiers took their military issue items such as weaponry, (rifles/side-arms/knives), uniforms, blankets, paybooks, emergency rations and ID tags/papers. Secondly, and I think what you may have wanted answered, was what soldiers took of a personal nature. This varied widely but the most common items where photos/love-letters/poems/embroidered handkerchiefs, sweetheart badges and other small keepsakes that could easily be carried on their person. Items from wives and girlfriends took priority over items from general family members. Tabacco in tins and cigarette lighters were favourites as well. More practical items where also taken. Bearing in mind that the Western Front was very cold most of the year, additional clothing items from home were common - such as knitted socks, scarves, longjohns, balaclavas and the like. Most soldiers had some possession of emotional value on them. They saw these items as a link with what they cherished most and after experiencing the horrors of war often took solice in a physical connection with their normal lives and loves. Sadly, many of the smaller personal items were used in identifying the bodies of fallen soldiers.
