After the start of the first world war, their was 4 major

6. THE MUDDY DAMP TRENCHES
During World War 1, the men had to live in muddy, damp wet
trenches which supported them from being hit by rifles and
guns.
The men would live in the trenches for 4 years with horrible
rats and muddy damp ditches to sleep in. This would have
been a horrible experience for the men to sleep in.

7. MY EXPERINCES IN THE TRENCHES
In May 2012, I visited the Trenches in Ypres on a school trip
based about the First World War.
When visiting the trenches, I saw a lot of tunnels and places
where the men used to sleep. I also saw a dead rat which
didn’t impress me.
I loved being in the trenches as it was very muddy and damp
but we had sunshine while visiting the sites. I also thought they
were keeped very well.

8. END OF WORLD WAR 1- 1918
On November 11th 1918 after 4 epic and horrific years at war,
the war came to silence as men and children were
remembered at a service to commemorated the end of the
war.
In 1920, the Armistice Day started a Remembrance Day which
would lead on every Sunday near to the anniversary of the
War. Today lots of Remembrance Services are held across
England and the world with poppies.
