Soldiers had to live with low quality gross food, rats, bad sleeping conditions, disease, possible random attacks, and more! Trenches were used at this time because it protected soldiers from gun shots, and it didn't evolve many deaths. They were also used because they could use their new tech correctly and fight the other enemy at a safe distance where you would not be hurt. ]]> 2022-03-04 14:21:40 UTC https://padlet.com/nicolemeisner98/906orbg845u6ly29/wish/2077993501 https://padlet.com/nicolemeisner98/906orbg845u6ly29/wish/2078074016 Life in the trenches were involved with periods of terror The threat of death kept soldiers constantly on edge, while poor living conditions and a lack of sleep wore away at their health and stamina.  Trenches were used in WW1 was to give soldiers some sort of protection from enemy fire. It also hindered enemy troops and just troops in general from readily advancing and because of that it prolonged the war.]]> 2022-03-04 15:02:12 UTC https://padlet.com/nicolemeisner98/906orbg845u6ly29/wish/2078074016 haydenmjhschristophers8 https://padlet.com/nicolemeisner98/906orbg845u6ly29/wish/2078531984 Christopher Salick: Life in the trenches were awful. The threat of death is very high so you always have to be on alert. There was bad conditions. Including rats , bugs , and water that is mostly petrol. Trenched were used to give soilders protection from enemy fire and has time went on trenches became more advance. As time went on they advanced with tanks and other stuff. ]]> 2022-03-04 19:38:55 UTC https://padlet.com/nicolemeisner98/906orbg845u6ly29/wish/2078531984 https://padlet.com/nicolemeisner98/906orbg845u6ly29/wish/2078736093 Life in the trenches was very bad. You could've got killed at any moment.  The Front Line Duty was the most dangerous, the soldiers had to defend the trenches from enemy attack.  Many new soldiers got sick from the lingering poison gas, dead bodies, stagnant mud. The trenches were used during  WWI because it allowed soldiers some protection from their  enemy's to fire and to set back  troops. ]]> 2022-03-04 23:38:18 UTC https://padlet.com/nicolemeisner98/906orbg845u6ly29/wish/2078736093 haydenmjhshaileyckp3 https://padlet.com/nicolemeisner98/906orbg845u6ly29/wish/2081600986 Life on the trenches was life with dirty, and sleepless. They had rats sleeping next to them. Front Line Trench work was the most dangerous job you can have in the trenches. And people got sick from the dead bodies next to them and the dangerous gas that the enemies used. Trenches were used to fire at the enemy while having some protection from open fire. ]]> 2022-03-07 13:17:17 UTC https://padlet.com/nicolemeisner98/906orbg845u6ly29/wish/2081600986 https://padlet.com/nicolemeisner98/906orbg845u6ly29/wish/2081643458 life in the trenches was unsanitary and life threatening. The trenches were used for soldiers to shield themselves cause in front of those trenches and the front line was the no man zone and whoever that would step on there might not survived.]]> 2022-03-07 13:37:34 UTC https://padlet.com/nicolemeisner98/906orbg845u6ly29/wish/2081643458 haydenmjhsmariancp2 https://padlet.com/nicolemeisner98/906orbg845u6ly29/wish/2082649395 Living in the trenches was tough because you had sleepless night and sometimes wake up to rat at your bed or your best friend dead. No matter where you were in the trench you could get killed so it was very hard to do most of the normal things you would in a daily life. With gas attacks you couldn't see anything for more than five seconds so something could badly happen in those five seconds do they had to be careful.]]> 2022-03-07 22:34:11 UTC https://padlet.com/nicolemeisner98/906orbg845u6ly29/wish/2082649395 https://padlet.com/nicolemeisner98/906orbg845u6ly29/wish/2082679087 Life in the trenches was very dangerous and miserable. You couldn't get to your enemy's side because you would get shot by the enemy. The only way to get across was by tank. It was miserable because if you were next to a dead body, you could catch a disease and get sick or die from the disease. Trenches were used to have protection while firing at the enemy.]]> 2022-03-07 23:05:50 UTC https://padlet.com/nicolemeisner98/906orbg845u6ly29/wish/2082679087 https://padlet.com/nicolemeisner98/906orbg845u6ly29/wish/2082852909 Life in the trenches were very bad. The trenches were so bad that whenever you waked up there would be rats all over you also there were a lot of bugs from the number of dead bodies, they would just leave the dead bodies in the trenches for weeks. Trenches were used in World War one because it would be safer for them to fight in the trenches rather than fighting in the nomad lands and the trenches would get more useful as the years past. ]]> 2022-03-08 01:11:58 UTC https://padlet.com/nicolemeisner98/906orbg845u6ly29/wish/2082852909 haydenmjhsalyssasp3 https://padlet.com/nicolemeisner98/906orbg845u6ly29/wish/2086222809 Life in the trenches were very bad and miserable. When people died you could barely sleep at night because of rats. Trenches were used in WWI so soldiers could take cover when being attacked.]]> 2022-03-09 14:47:15 UTC https://padlet.com/nicolemeisner98/906orbg845u6ly29/wish/2086222809 https://padlet.com/nicolemeisner98/906orbg845u6ly29/wish/2091964850 Life in the trenches was horrible and unsanitary. You would barely get any sleep since you have to be alert at all times. And if someone ended up dying next to you, soldiers had to pay attention to the war so they couldn't take the body to the back, which you would end up getting a disease from the corpse sitting there for days. These trenches were used during WW1 as protection against the enemy's attacks, and to fire attacks at the enemy as well. ]]> 2022-03-13 01:18:48 UTC https://padlet.com/nicolemeisner98/906orbg845u6ly29/wish/2091964850 https://padlet.com/nicolemeisner98/906orbg845u6ly29/wish/2094707793 Life in the trenches were terrible because there were dead body's every where that leads to a high chance of getting sick and spreading disease. Also the food was horrible (and probably had no seasonings on it which made the food very bland) you couldn't even get a cup of tea because the water wouldn't get hot enough. After all that time there and not knowing if you were going to live or die it caused people to not get enough sleep. and if you were in the trenches there were rats and mouse's everywhere nibbling on peoples feet where there's a ton of mud in your shoe as well.]]> 2022-03-14 21:56:58 UTC https://padlet.com/nicolemeisner98/906orbg845u6ly29/wish/2094707793 https://padlet.com/nicolemeisner98/906orbg845u6ly29/wish/2094708026 Life in the trenches was horrible. If your enemies threw a bomb, it would bomb up the whole entire trench, there weren't even solid places to sleep and you would wake up with mice nibbling at your feet which is gross. If you went on the front line you would get shot easily. There was no way to discard bodies and if you did come out of the trench you would most likely get killed so the corpses would stay there for weeks and it would cause diseases and sickness to others that were in the trench. ]]> 2022-03-14 21:57:16 UTC https://padlet.com/nicolemeisner98/906orbg845u6ly29/wish/2094708026 haydenmjhsnylahhmp9 https://padlet.com/nicolemeisner98/906orbg845u6ly29/wish/2098437659 living in the trench was really bad because every time you were tired and tried to sleep. You had to be scared to die. ]]> 2022-03-16 16:44:30 UTC https://padlet.com/nicolemeisner98/906orbg845u6ly29/wish/2098437659 https://padlet.com/nicolemeisner98/906orbg845u6ly29/wish/2099944215 Life in the trenches were very terrible. The Trenches were very narrow and made it hard to move. If someone were to die right next to you their body would stay their for 2 weeks before you catch a diesese. Trenches were used so that soldiers could have protection and so enemy soldies could have diffculies getting past.]]> 2022-03-17 12:29:35 UTC https://padlet.com/nicolemeisner98/906orbg845u6ly29/wish/2099944215 https://padlet.com/nicolemeisner98/906orbg845u6ly29/wish/2100924879 2022-03-17 23:43:56 UTC https://padlet.com/nicolemeisner98/906orbg845u6ly29/wish/2100924879 haydenmjhsnoahp9 https://padlet.com/nicolemeisner98/906orbg845u6ly29/wish/2105275383 Life in the trench was bad.
