• The front of the Trenches were guarded by barbed wire.
• If not the soldiers had to crouch.• The Trenches were set up parallel to each other one
for each opposing side.• The land between the two trenches was referred to as
“No mans land”.• There Were second and third defense lines one used
for defense and the other for communications.

"If you have never had trench foot described to you, I will explain. Your feet swell to two to three times their normal size and go completely dead. You can stick a bayonet into them and not feel a thing. If you are lucky enough not to lose your feet and the swelling starts to go down, it is then that the most indescribable agony begins." (Harry Robert).
