World War I Mizell, Tubbs, Hatling

Essential Question How did new technology make WWI different from past wars?

Tactics and Warfare Prior to WWI (1914) Marched in lines – mass fire Used rifle-muskets (about 2-3 shots per minute)

Tactics and Warfare before the 1900s Video Clip – Gods and Generals – Battle of Manassas (1861), American Civil War – ?v=QxX4Bo6yG38 ?v=QxX4Bo6yG38

Guns Machine Gun – Perfect defensive weapon – Very rapid fire (hundreds of bullets per minute) Bolt action rifles – What the ordinary soldier had – 4 – 10 bullets per clip

The Machine Gun

Bolt Action Rifle

Bolt Action Rifles

Artillery Long range weapons that could deliver devastating blows on the enemy Shells could be as heavy as 900 lbs

Artillery Before WWI

Artillery During WWI

Airplanes Primarily used for reconnaissance (spying) Could have machine guns or bombs

Poison Gas Tear Gas, Chlorine Gas – Attacks the nerves, eyes, throat – Wear gas mask for protection Mustard Gas – Makes skin blister, eyes sore, vomit – This gas was heavier than air and sunk into the trenches – Gas mask did not help

Mustard Gas victim

Submarines “A ship underwater” Germany will use these to great affect: U-boats Launch torpedoes at enemy ships

Zeppelins Could carry 4,000 – 5,000 lbs of bombs Abandoned because they were easy targets

Zeppelins

Tanks Most innovative development of the war Created in order to break the stalemate and go through the trenches Did not reach full potential

Tactics and Warfare Change in WWI Video Clip – All Quiet on the Western Front – – Pay attention to the weapons used and how/where soldiers fight

What differences did you see? – Where/How they fought? – What did they use to fight?

Tactics and Warfare Change in WWI Fighting in Trenches – Protection from new technology No longer marching in lines Using machine guns

The Result of this New Technology
