This leaflet is designed to tell you all about
what life would be like to be in a trench
during World War 1. As you and I both know
it wouldn't be easy wearing the same clothes
for a month and also going ‘Over The Top’.

Countries Involved in WWI
There were many countries involved in WWI these are
only a few of them:
Life in a Trench
Germany
In a trench, soldiers would eat, sleep, and live.
They wouldn't have a proper toilet ( or a toilet of
any kind!) They would have to sleep on the
ground where rats lived (if they were lucky they
would have a small crate to sit on.) There would
be no showers nor a basin to wash up in but on
the bright side they got a nice hot meal and a
shower and their clothes cleaned and mended
(they would be in the same clothes for a month!)
In a trench there would be a good
chance of getting a disease like: trench foot,
trench mouth and many, many more.
This is a picture of a soldier who had
trench foot.
