Trench warfare was one of the defining features of the First World War. Soldiers lived for weeks or even months in long, narrow trenches, enduring mud, waterlogged conditions, disease, rats, and constant shellfire. While the trenches offered protection from enemy fire, life within them was physically demanding and mentally exhausting, making survival a daily challenge 🌹
