Life in the trenches was very difficult.There were lots of rats who were attracted by food and waste that caused diseases. There were also a lot of liceI lacked sleep, food and hygiene. During heavy rains, mud was a disease vector. The trenches were dug in paths battle and were awful, long, narrow and deep. She were muddy and wet. The trenches were not comfortable because of the smell of corpses who was unbearable and dreadful... He were filled with mud, I had knee. The trenches were not safe because there were a lots of barbed son.

I met a soldier in the same regiment that me. His name was Georges and he was 19 years old. It became my friend because we got along well and had the same centers of interest. Georges was my best friend, my confidant, we said all, he was kind, fun, courageous and sometimes negative. We had different hobbies who were card games, the conversation, hand-writing. And sometimes objects were manufactured, jewelry with all kinds of materials supplied by bushings, belts shells, uniform buttons. But one day my friend was killed by a grenade. I saw him die, I felt dejected both morally and physically, I felt so sad because it was my best friend and Georges was like a brother.

I was weak morally about war, I thought a lot my family and friends. I realized that I could lose you at any time. I saw life differently and I matured. I was proud of the weapons we had, there were the machine gun was used to fire 600 rounds per minute and also the gun was used to fire 600 rounds per minute and also the gun was used to fire 21 rounds per minute. I was surprised because the weapons were very effective. The weapons have killed many enemies and the war ended quickly.

There are several conséquences of the war :

-9.2 million deaths; French: 1.4 million dead; many maimed and disabled.
