Trench Life WW1



Trench life was not easy for the troops, weather conditions, lack of basic food and water. So catching rats I guess must have been a fun pursuit, did they eat them?



Ring a Ding Dong, scattered across the trenches were posts that alerted the troops of incoming gas attacks, often the sound of the bell would mean getting on the gas masks and digging in.
