The Realities of Trench Warfare

Trench Warfare Starting in 1915, along the Western Front troops dug trenches or ditches to protect themselves while fighting. Trenches created an even worse stalemate and made the soldiers fight and live in miserable conditions. It was difficult to gain land, and many lives were lost.

Fear and Anticipation As you sit in a trench, what do you fear? What dangers do you face? How are you preparing yourself – both physically and mentally – to face those dangers? Physically put yourself in a position to face those dangers. How does it feel to be in that position?

First Bombardment There has been constant shelling for three days. How does your head feel? What destruction to you expect to see around you the next morning? Describe it. Did you expect to die? How did you cope with that feeling? What do you think the enemy hopes to gain with this constant shelling?

Surviving a Gas Attack Your gas mask irritates the skin of your face and itches. What can you do to comfort yourself without exposing yourself to the poisonous gas? The gas mask makes you feel claustrophobic. What is that feeling like? What can you do to overcome the feeling? Do it now. The soldier next to you dies. What are you going to do with the body?

Daily Life What methods would you use to get rid of the rats? Your ration is a tin of ham and a piece of bread. How will you eat your food so it lasts for an entire day? The rats have nibbled on your bread. Will you still eat it? What do you think might happen to you if you do? Your meat is spoiled and after eating it you feel very sick. What can you do? You develop diarrhea; what problems does this cause in the trenches?

Dealing with Boredom What do you do to keep from getting bored? Your leg has a cramp. How do you get rid of it? The soldier next to you has a cold and keeps sneezing and coughing. What can you do to protect yourself from getting sick too? Your uniform is wet because you have been sitting in a puddle. What will you do to get more comfortable? Do it now.

Morale Will you sign up to go on patrol tomorrow? Why or why not? How does the constant fear affect your morale? As the captain, it is your job to reassure your men. How will you inspire confidence in your troops so that they keep fighting? You are feeling homesick and thinking about writing a letter. What experiences will you relate to your family? Will you spare them any of the details?
