Fighting WWI: Western Front Battles, Strategies, New Weapons

Trench Warfare How was trench warfare used in WWI? Why did this tactic lead to a stalemate?

Trench Warfare Relied on defense  both sides dug trenches facing each other. Result was a stalemate situation- both sides stuck, neither able to attack because the other defended so well. Men would charge across open fields rushing to the opposing side & be cut down with machine gun fire.

Disease No proper system of waste disposal Soldiers would use tins to deposit waste and throw them over the trench. Large numbers of decomposing bodies filled up the trenches This attracted rats who carried diseases, like malaria and influenza.

Trench Foot

Shellshock In WWI, shell shock was considered a psychiatric illness resulting from injury to the nerves during combat The horrors of trench warfare meant that about 10% of the fighting soldiers were killed and the total proportion of troops who became casualties (killed or wounded) was 56%.

New weapons in WWI What weapons were created to fight WWI? Tanks Machine Guns Zeppelins (Air) Mortars (shot a shell in a high arc over a relatively short distance) Helmets Barbed Wire Mustard Gas

Progression of the Machine Gun Early machine guns were heavy, hard to transport, required several men to operate and overheated Later, they added coolant & made them lighter = increased effectiveness; could fire 1,200 rounds a minute and were mass produced

MUSTARD GAS

What is TOTAL WAR? Complete mobilization of all resources available  everything is dedicated to the war effort! People, agriculture, industry, economy, etc.

What is a war of attrition? A military strategy in which one side attempts to win a war by wearing down the enemy to the point of collapse through continuous losses in morale, personnel, supplies, etc. This is key in TOTAL WAR!
