The Three Worst Things About Trench Warfare

Trench warfare had multiple flaws, but I would say the worst part about it is the use of mustard gas because before gas masked were used there was almost no way to protect yourself. Also with the trenches being constantly muddy and filled with water it was very common for soldiers to get trench foot as well as a lot of sickness went around in the trenches. Lastly the trenches were described as sickening because of the odor of going to the bathroom in them as well as the dead bodies of soldiers.

  1. I think the trenches were the worst place to be. This was the first war in which men spent the majority of their time in trenches in these awful conditions.
