WW1 The Battle Front

The Schlieffen Plan Germany planned to defeat France quickly by invading through Belgium, Luxembourg and Holland and then turn to the eastern front for a major offensive on Russia.

Life in the trenches My memories are of sheer terror and the horror of seeing men sobbing because they had trench foot that had turned gangrenous. They knew they were going to lose a leg. Memories of lice in your clothing driving you crazy. Filth and lack of privacy. Of huge rats that showed no fear of you as they stole your food rations. And cold deep wet mud everywhere. And of course, corpses. I'd never seen a dead body before I went to war. But in the trenches the dead are lying all around you. You could be talking to the fellow next to you when suddenly he'd be hit by a sniper and fall dead beside you. And there he‘d stay for days. Arthur Savage, Age 92
