World War I was fought from 1914-1918 between the Allied powers of Russia, France, England, and later the United States against the Central Powers of Germany and Austria-Hungary. It began as a European conflict over territory and alliances but soon evolved into a global war involving 32 nations. Trench warfare led to stalemate on the Western Front as both sides dug into networks of trenches and used new weapons like poison gas, leading to immense casualties. The colonies of various nations contributed resources and soldiers to the war effort.
Trench warfare during World War 1 involved both sides digging deep trenches for protection that were often flooded and infested with rats. Soldiers lived in miserable conditions in the trenches, with their feet constantly wet and at risk of trench foot, and dead bodies often remaining just below the surface. New technologies like tanks, airplanes, submarines and chemical weapons such as poison gas contributed to the immense human costs of the war.
Life in the trenches during World War 1 was miserable. Trenches were often muddy, prone to collapse, and under constant threat of shelling or sniper fire. Rats and lice infested the trenches, spreading diseases. Soldiers lived in filthy conditions and dealt with trench foot, lice, and the overwhelming smell of death, waste, and chemicals in the trenches. Death was a daily reality for those serving in the trenches.
The document describes trench warfare during World War I. Trenches became necessary for defense after the German offensive plan failed and they shifted to defending. Trenches were part of an elaborate defensive system including barbed wire, mines, and artillery to make advancing very costly. Life in the trenches was difficult, with soldiers facing lice, trench foot from standing in water, and rats everywhere as they endured daily attacks and maintained the trenches.
Overview of trench warfare in WWI with effects it had on the war and the soldiers involved. At the end, it includes an assignment for students to practice writing a "primary" document.
Life in the trenches of World War I was miserable and dangerous. Soldiers faced constant threats of death from sniper fire or artillery shells. Trenches were infested with rats and lice that spread disease. Men endured boredom, filthy conditions with little sleep between standing guard or repairing trenches. Even simple tasks like patrolling No Man's Land could result in death from enemy fire or hand-to-hand combat with opposing soldiers. Through it all, the smells of decaying bodies and waste made conditions unbearable.
The document discusses the changes in warfare during World War 1 and how they affected soldiers. Trench warfare became dominant, as static defensive lines replaced mobile combat. Artillery grew increasingly powerful and accurate. Cavalry became obsolete, while infantry took on new frontline roles like defending trenches and launching attacks. Chemical weapons like chlorine gas were introduced, and tanks were later developed as a new weapon, though they were initially unreliable. Life for soldiers in the trenches was difficult, as they endured poor sanitation, disease, frostbite, and constant danger from artillery bombardments and gas attacks.
The document summarizes life in the trenches for soldiers during World War 1. It describes the boredom of daily life in the trenches, punctuated by moments of terror from bombardment and attacks. Trench warfare was characterized by squalid living conditions with rats, lice, and disease. Soldiers suffered from physical ailments like trench foot and shell shock. Christmas 1914 saw a spontaneous ceasefire and fraternization between British and German soldiers in some areas of the front.

Christmas 1914 saw a spontaneous ceasefire and fraternization between British and German soldiers in some areas of the front.
WWI saw extensive propaganda use by both sides to promote and damage causes. There were 5 main propaganda techniques: bandwagon, testimonial, transfer, repetition, and emotional words. WWI poetry reflected romantic and graphic perspectives on the war. The US entry into the war in 1917 provided needed supplies and troops. The war ended on November 11, 1918 with Germany's surrender. The Treaty of Versailles formalized the end but its punitive terms planted seeds for future conflict.
The document describes life and warfare during World War 1 from 1914-1919. Trench warfare became the dominant strategy, with elaborate trench systems stretching over 400 miles. Conditions in the trenches were terrible, with constant threat of death from machine guns and artillery, as well as infestations of rats and lice. New weapons were introduced, including tanks, poison gas, flamethrowers, and airplanes. Famous pilots like Eddie Rickenbacker and the Red Baron emerged during the aerial battles of the war.
World War I was caused by rising nationalism, imperialism, and shifting alliances between European powers. It lasted from 1914 to 1918 and resulted in over 10 million military deaths. Though weapons had advanced significantly, military tactics had not evolved to counter new technologies like machine guns and artillery. Mass infantry formations were decimated on the modern battlefield, where indirect fire and chemical weapons caused widespread casualties. The stalemate of trench warfare ensued, with neither side able to gain a decisive advantage.
Soldiers in the trenches during WWI faced difficult living and working conditions. They started each day with stand to and morning hate before performing inspection, chores like repairing trenches and sandbags, and cycle duties. Life in the trenches involved serving on the front lines under constant shellfire or working in no man's land while only getting brief periods of rest. Disease and pests like rats, lice, and trench foot plagued the men due to the filthy, unsanitary conditions and death was a constant threat.
The document discusses the origins and key events of World War 1, including the complex network of alliances that drew the major European powers into war after the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary in 1914, as well as the devastating human toll of the war and the new military technologies like machine guns, artillery, gas warfare, and tanks that led to mass casualties over four years of brutal trench warfare. The document also examines some of the major battles of the war, such as the Battle of Verdun, and the entry of the United States into the war in 1918.
This document discusses the various weapons used during World War 1, including machine guns, tanks, gas, artillery, aircraft, and submarines. It describes the strengths and weaknesses of each weapon, such as how machine guns could kill large numbers quickly but overheated, while tanks provided defensive cover but were slow, and submarines were difficult to detect but their tactics were considered dishonorable by some. The goal is to analyze the impact of these new weapons that emerged during the war.
Weapons in WWI included tube artillery like guns, mortars, and howitzers. Machine guns allowed for rapid fire but were initially ineffective. Tanks were first developed by the British and deployed by several nations, though early models had issues with heat and reliability. Aircraft conducted reconnaissance and bombing but had high casualty rates. Chemical weapons like chlorine, mustard, and phosgene gases caused over 100,000 deaths, despite countermeasures like gas masks. Submarines threatened naval forces until sonar and hydrophones were developed for anti-submarine detection.
This was done about three years ago by two former students. I figured I would post it on our class web site so kids could use it as notes for our Ages of Warfare unit.
1) Armoured fighting vehicles (AFVs) first emerged in World War 1 as tanks were developed to help break trench warfare deadlocks.
2) Over the decades, AFVs evolved significantly through different wars and conflicts. New models incorporated lessons learned and adapted to changing threats and technologies.
3) AFVs fill an important role in modern combat by providing protected mobility, firepower, and the ability to transport troops across difficult terrain. They have been integral to operations in conflicts like the Gulf War, Afghanistan, and the Battle of 73 Easting.
The document discusses World War 1 and provides context around its origins and impact. It notes that the war started in 1914, ended in 1918, and resulted in over 10 million military deaths and 20 million wounded. Nationalism, imperialism, and a complex system of alliances between European powers meant that a conflict between two countries could escalate and draw others in. New military technologies like machine guns, artillery, gas weapons, and tanks increased casualties but also changed the nature of warfare. The war had widespread social and political impacts across Europe and was the first truly industrialized global conflict.
The document summarizes key aspects of trench warfare and new weapons during World War 1, including how troops lived in deep trenches, the horrors of trench foot and rats, and the introduction of poison gas, tanks, airplanes, and machine guns. It also profiles some famous pilots like Eddie Rickenbacker and the Christmas truce of 1914 when soldiers briefly stopped fighting to celebrate together in no man's land.
The three main firearms used during the American Revolution were muskets, flintlock pistols, and swords. Muskets were the most common weapon, with three main types used including the Brown Bess, Charleville, and Kentucky long rifle. Flintlock pistols were less accurate than muskets and could only fire 2-3 shots per minute, so they served as a secondary weapon. Swords were also popular and most were produced in Europe, while cannons had a significant influence on battles by destroying enemies from long ranges of up to 800 yards.
The document summarizes some of the key weapons used during World War 1 by different countries. It describes rifles like the British Lee-Enfield and German Gewehr 98, the development and use of machine guns, artillery, poison gas, early airplanes and air combat, tanks, and zeppelins. Barbed wire is also discussed as a barrier used extensively in trench warfare during WWI.
The document discusses various aspects of warfare during World War 1, including naval warfare with U-boats sinking supply ships, the use of trenches, tanks, gas, and machine guns on land, and air warfare with planes and zeppelins. Key developments were the US entry into the war after U-boats sank American ships, the initial ineffectiveness of early tanks, and the horrific effects of chemical weapons like mustard gas and chlorine that could linger and cause prolonged suffering. Life in the trenches was made miserable by lice, rats, disease, and the dangers of no man's land between opposing sides.
The document summarizes the contributions of Polish, Czech, and other Allied pilots during the pivotal Battle of Britain in 1940. It notes that over 8,000 Polish airmen fled to Britain after the fall of France. Polish pilots made up squadrons 303 and 302 and helped the RAF defeat the Luftwaffe in aerial combat, with 303 Squadron shooting down more enemy planes than any other Allied squadron. A total of 145 Polish pilots fought in the battle. Czech pilots also distinguished themselves with their aggressiveness, comprising their own 310 Squadron. Notable aces mentioned include the Polish squadron leader Witold Urbanowicz with 15 kills, and Czech Josef František being one of the highest Allied scorers with 17 kills
The document outlines the key events that led to the outbreak of World War 1 in 1914. It describes how the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand triggered a series of diplomatic tensions and military mobilizations between European powers that resulted in Germany declaring war on Russia and France. Germany then invaded Belgium, drawing Britain into the war in defense of Belgian neutrality. The war quickly stalemated as both sides dug extensive trench systems, resulting in four years of costly and bloody trench warfare on the Western Front.
World War 1 saw the rise of new technologies that changed the nature of warfare, leading countries to develop more effective weapons and causing battles to be fought differently. Trench warfare exhausted soldiers, forcing them to adapt quickly to harsh conditions. German u-boats effectively sank British ships, threatening their naval power. Meanwhile, Germany had more advanced aircraft than Russia, demonstrating their air superiority. These new technologies, including machine guns, submarines, and airplanes, caused massive casualties and marked a shift to more modern warfare, establishing the basis for today's military technologies.
This document summarizes weapons and warfare tactics used in World Wars I and II. In WW1, key weapons included tanks, airplanes, submarines, and poison gases like mustard gas. Trench warfare involved the use of trenches for defense, while chemical warfare used toxic substances as weapons. In WW2, vehicles included improved airplanes and tanks, along with rifles, machine guns, and other small arms. Warfare tactics evolved from WW1 and included air, naval, and some chemical warfare, especially in Asia.
Soldiers in World War 1 faced difficult living conditions in trenches, with poor sanitation and disease-carrying rats running over them at night. They had basic weaponry like hand guns, grenades, and machine guns, and battled in long trenches that stretched for kilometers. If it rained, soldiers would sleep in mud and be soaked through the night. Many suffered from lice, trench foot, and other diseases, and thousands lost their lives before the end of the war.
World War I caused immense casualties and trauma. Photographs and reconstructed drawings from 1917 document the gruesome injuries sustained by over 850,000 German and 700,000 French soldiers, as well as 400,000 British soldiers in the Battle of the Somme in 1916 alone. Wax casts created by the Val-de-Grace Museum in Paris further captured the injuries of soldiers, while over 80,000 British soldiers suffered from shell shock.
The document summarizes the key causes and events of World War I. The main causes included militarism, alliances, imperialism, and nationalism in Europe. The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand led to an escalating series of events where countries honored their alliances, leading Germany and the Allied powers into war. New weapons like machine guns, poison gas, tanks, airplanes and trench warfare led to military stalemate and over 8.5 million deaths. The Treaty of Versailles after the war assigned guilt to Germany and imposed harsh reparations.

During WW1, everyday life was focused on supporting the war effort. Industries adjusted to meet wartime needs by rationing food and fuel and hiring women, youth, and immigrant workers to replace those serving in the military. Governments also tightly controlled information through propaganda posters and censorship to influence public opinion and morale for political purposes during the total war.
This document discusses the concepts of creativity and art. It begins by defining key terms like art, artist, and creativity. It then explores different perspectives on what creativity and art are, including viewing them as forms of expression, information, tools, and practice. The document also examines debates around whether art should be defined by its form or function. Overall, the document exposes the reader to many philosophical questions about the nature and purpose of art.
Lieutenant Duncan Buchanan McDonald served in the Boer War and World War I, receiving medals for his efforts. He was born in New Zealand in 1880 and died in 1915 aboard the HMHS Gascon after being shot in the stomach while bravely attending to a wounded soldier during the Gallipoli campaign. McDonald had previously served in the Boer War and was one of the first casualties in the ANZAC landing at Gallipoli on April 25, 1915.

Este documento presenta el contexto histórico y social del arte griego. Explora la geografía de Grecia, los antecedentes de las civilizaciones cretense y micénica, el desarrollo político de las polis como Atenas y Esparta, la religión politeísta griega, y el pensamiento racional y antropocéntrico que caracterizó la cultura griega y su búsqueda de la belleza a través de proporciones matemáticas.
The document summarizes key events in Latin America in the 19th century, including independence movements led by figures like Simon Bolivar that aimed for democracy and equality. It discusses the expansion of trade and economies in Latin America in the 1840s-1870s, as well as Britain's strong economic influence through investments and trade agreements. It also outlines the many political, economic, and social causes of wars across Latin America during this period, including disputes over ideology, territory, and resources. Specific examples highlight Mexico's path to independence led by figures like Miguel Hidalgo and Jose Maria Morelos in the 1810s.
Harold Saunders describes the harsh conditions soldiers faced living in the trenches during World War I. Life was dangerous, as the man next to him was killed by an explosion that also blinded Saunders with sandbags. Trench warfare brought lice, rats, diseases like trench fever and trench foot. Soldiers had to stand guard during "stand to" periods and faced regular patrols in no man's land between the trenches, which was shelled regularly. The first use of gas warfare caused mass casualties on both sides and marked a new stage of destruction in the trenches.
World War I was a global war fought from 1914 to 1918 in which allies including Great Britain, France, Russia, and the United States defeated Germany, Austria-Hungary, Turkey, and Bulgaria. The Zimmerman Telegram was a 1917 proposal from Germany to Mexico to join the Central Powers if the US entered WWI against them, which was intercepted and helped generate American support for entering the war. The Selective Service Act authorized the US government to raise a national army through conscription, while the American Expeditionary Force fought alongside allies in Europe against Germany from 1917-1918 under General John J. Pershing.

Hogan's History- World War I [Updated 18 Apr 2015]William Hogan
World War I began in 1914 after the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary by a Serbian nationalist. This caused a series of military alliances to take sides in the war, dividing Europe into the Allied and Central Powers. Trench warfare dominated the Western Front as both sides engaged in brutal battles along miles of fortified trenches. Conditions in the trenches were terrible, with soldiers facing constant dangers from artillery fire, machine guns, poison gas, disease, vermin, and more. Over time, new weapons like tanks and airplanes were introduced, but the war remained deadlocked for years until the Allied powers prevailed in 1918.
The document provides background information on America's entry into World War II and policies on the home front during the war. It discusses Americans' isolationist views after WWI, the debate between isolationists and interventionists, the passing of the Lend-Lease Act to aid Britain, Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor which brought the US into the war, rationing of goods via ration books and stamps, and the roles of women during the war through organizations like WAVES and as "Rosie the Riveters".
Trench warfare dominated fighting on the Western Front during World War 1 after initial advances by German forces were halted. Over the next three years, neither side was able to advance more than a few miles as they faced off across an extensive network of trenches that stretched from the North Sea to the Swiss border. Life in the trenches was miserable, with soldiers enduring constant shelling, poison gas attacks, disease, vermin, and flooded ditches filled with water and mud. Both sides attempted different strategies to break the stalemate, including new weapons like tanks, cavalry charges, and underground mining operations, but ultimately no breakthroughs were achieved and trench warfare continued until the end of the war.
There were three types of trenches used in World War I - the front line trench, fire trenches with higher steps to allow safer firing, and communications trenches that connected lines and allowed transport of wounded soldiers. Life in the trenches was difficult - soldiers slept in dugouts, food was scarce, and conditions were made worse by constant rain and mud that caused trench foot. Fighting involved going "over the top" to advance toward enemy lines under heavy fire, or using tunnels to plant explosives. Soldiers experienced massive casualties, and those who survived faced disability, shell shock, and an unprepared home front upon their return.
The document describes life during World War I trench warfare. Soldiers lived in cold, muddy trenches infested with vermin like lice and rats. They faced harsh conditions including freezing temperatures, contaminated food and water, disease, and the constant threat of artillery shelling, gas attacks, and sniper fire. Trench warfare resulted in a brutal war of attrition with awful living conditions that seriously impacted soldiers' physical and mental health.
World War 1 began in July 1914 when Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia, starting a global conflict between the Allied and Central powers. Propaganda promoted enlisting for the war. Life in the trenches for soldiers was miserable, as trenches flooded, attracted rats and lice causing disease, and exposed men to weather extremes that could lead to injuries like trench foot. Around 8.5-12 million soldiers died during the war, with one third of deaths occurring in the trenches from gas attacks, crossing no man's land between trenches, or other trench conditions.
Australians in the battle of somme and the battle of yprescmasters3
The document summarizes Australians' involvement in two major World War I battles - the Battle of the Somme in 1916 and the three Battles of Ypres from 1914-1917. It describes the strategic objectives and enormous casualties in the Battles of the Somme, as well as the trench conditions soldiers faced, including disease. It also outlines the dates and key details of the three Battles of Ypres, including first use of gas weapons in 1915, and the high casualties suffered by Australians and others in 1917.
WWI introduced new deadly technologies that led to trench warfare and mass casualties. On the Western Front, troops dug networks of trenches that stretched for hundreds of miles, with no man's land in between. Attempts to break through enemy lines involved artillery bombardments followed by soldiers going "over the top" into machine gun fire, often resulting in hundreds of thousands of casualties. New weapons like tanks, airplanes, chemical agents, and flamethrowers were introduced but often caused as much harm as help due to technical limitations. The war ended in 1918 with an Allied victory following a series of battles that exhausted Germany's military resources.
Trench warfare occurred during World War I after the German offensive plan failed and they shifted to defense, establishing trenches in anticipation of allied counterattacks. Trenches were part of an extensive defensive system including barbed wire, mines, and artillery, making advances very costly. Life in the trenches was difficult, with soldiers facing lice, trench foot from standing in water all day, and rats everywhere. Every day, soldiers stood to at dawn in case of enemy attacks and performed maintenance like repairing sandbags, while also enduring regular gas attacks, artillery, and sniper fire.

WWI introduced new deadly technologies like machine guns, tanks, airplanes, and chemical weapons that led to trench warfare and mass casualties. Trench warfare involved opposing forces dug into networks of trenches, launching artillery and waves of soldiers across no man's land at each other. Over time, tanks and improved tactics allowed breakthroughs of trench lines. Germany's defeat in 1918 led to the punitive Treaty of Versailles and formation of the League of Nations, though the US did not join.

The nature of trench warfare and life in trenches dealing with the experience of the allied and german forces
1. The Nature of Trench
Warfare and Life in the
Trenches Dealing With
Experiences of Allied
and German Soldiers
LIFE IN THE TRENCHES: OVERALL CONDITIONS
3. Why were the trenches built?
When the German soldiers were being pushed back by Allied forces
during the Schlieffen Plan they needed to be able hold a defensive
position so they dug into the ground creating the trenches.
These trenches in France become the Western front creating the
stalemate, the conflict which was a War of Movement now
became a War of Trenches.
The War on the western front was mainly a war of attrition which is
the act of weakening ones enemy to the point of exhaustion,
making the other side win due to them having greater reserves and
resources. This made it difficult for any country to achieve victory
due to the difficult nature of trench warfare.
5. Trench Structure
The trenches were not built
parallel with each other but
were built weaving so it was
harder for the enemy to
shoot soldiers in the trench
Not like this,
as it leaves
soldiers too
vulnerable
Trenches
were built
like this as
it allowed
for
defensive
and
offensive
positions
Zigzag line as a defensive measure - minimized
impact of a shell landing in the trench and meant
that attackers didn't have a clear line of fire down
the whole trench
6. The Layout of the trenches
There were three lines of trenches, then no mans land, then the
enemies side consisting of the three lines.
the front line for attack and defense
the support line to which front line soldiers could (if possible) retreat
during bombardment
the reserve line where troops waited for their leaders call to battle
rear wall of the support had dugouts
communication trenches dug at right angles linked all three
trenches
The land in between the two opposing armies was called no mans
land. This was the land that held the majority of the fighting. The
land was churned up from shells and had rows of barb wire to slow
down opposing enemies.
9. No Mans Land
No mans land is the term describing the land between the two
opposing trenches.
This land is where the majority of the fighting occurred.
The composition of no mans land changed it was never static.
The no mans land consisted of up churned terrain and barb wirer near
the front line of the trenches. From the heavy artillery no mans land
become barren, mud soaked craters and rotting corpses.
This area was where men, at the sound of a whistle would jump over the
front line and fight face to face, sometimes hand t hand with their
counter parts.
The majority of fighting here would occur at night, each side would
dispatch parties to spy on the enemy, or to repair or extend barbed
wire posts. Reconnaissance missions were similarly common. Injured
men trapped in No Man's Land would often be brought in under cover
of darkness, as were corpses for burial.
10. Pictures showing no mans land

11. Trench Warfare
Fixed trench warfare was the standard form of fighting during ww1
It was the reason for the stalemate
Trench warfare created a living environment for the men which was
harsh, stagnant and extremely dangerous. Causing many health risk
The trenches were under constant threat of attack, from artillery
firing from the opposing trench or from enemy running through no
mans land
12. Main weapons used
Barb wirer (slows down approaching enemy)
Rifles with fixed bayonets
Grenades
Heavy artillery: mortars etc.
Introduction of tanks
Gas
14. Life in the trenches
A typical day in the trenches:
5am - 'Stand-to' (short for 'Stand-to-Arms', meaning to be on high-alert for enemy attack) half an hour
before daylight
5.30am - Rum ration
6am - Stand-to half an hour after daylight
7am - Breakfast (usually bacon and tea)
After 8am - Clean themselves, clean weapons, tidy trench
Noon - Dinner
After dinner - Sleep and downtime (one man per ten on duty)
5pm - Tea
6pm - Stand-to half an hour before dusk
6.30pm - Stand-down half an hour after dusk
6.30pm onwards - Work all night with some time for rest (patrols, digging trenches, putting up barbed
wire, getting stores, replacement of unit of soldiers every five days)

15. Living conditions
The conditions in the trenches were harsh and undesirable
The soldiers were under constant threat of attack
Through the war soldiers suffered mental health conditions known
then as shell shock
Health issues arose from the poor conditions
17. Rotation
The trenches were designed in 3
rows, the front line, support line
and the reserve line
The man at each line were
rotated to refresh the men at the
front line
A general pattern for trench
routine was for a man and his
section to spend 4 days in the
front line, then 4 days in close
reserve and finally 4 at rest,
although this varied enormously
depending on conditions, the
weather and the availability of
enough reserve troops to be able
to rotate them in this way.
18. Rain and Mud
There were heavy amounts of rain during WW1, especially on the western front this created a
muddy terrain
The heavy artillery and shelling caused the land to be up churned, causing it to become
very muddy and wet
This created water booged trenches and an up churned no mans land
The water made everything wet causing water borne disease, in winter made the soldiers
very cold causing phenomena and trench foot
Duckboards were used to walk across the muddy trenches
“We have just come out of the trenches after being in for six days and up to our
waists in water.” - Private Stanley Terry of 15 North End, East Grinstead, wrote a letter to his
family in November, 1915. The letter was not censored.

20. Sanitation
In general and simple terms the trenches were not sanitised places,
there were dead bodies, rats, water, mud, disease and infection
everywhere.
Due to low supplies showering was infrequent, leaving soldiers to
become susceptible to disease.
Due to the amounts of dead bodes, disease was riddled through
the battle fields, which attracted numerous rats.
Lice was also an issue
21. Health Issues
General disease from the unsanitary conditions
Infection from wounds
Trench foot; was a consequence of the soldiers feet being bogged
and not being able to dry their feet
Shell shock; was the term given to solders who were experiencing
mental health issues, they would now be known as PTSD, depression
and anxiety.
25. Allied Soldiers Vs German Soldiers
The German soldiers were the first to dig in to build the trenches so they were
more established; some of them even using concreate, they also choose where
to build trenches, like higher ground or near fresh water supplies
The allied soldiers trenches were generally less equipped and the structures were
not as established as the German forces. This was partly due to the fact that
German built there trenches first and that the allied soldiers believed this war
would be over by Christmas.
condition of the trench depended on = how long and how quickly it had been
established/if it was seen as temporary or permanent/nature of the ground where
it was located/local weather conditions/military goals at different times/extent of
military bombardment.
Generally German trenches were much better facilitated than the Allied forces.
