~Trench Warfare~

~Trench Warfare~


What is Trench warfare?
Trench warfare is a type of land warfare using
occupied fighting lines largely comprising
military trenches, it was also used to protect
other soldiers from gasses and more.  Of course,
living in the trenches was not as easy as you
thought.


In the trenches it was muddy and wet whenever
the soldiers were in the trenches, their boots and
socks were almost always wet. This caused
trench foot which is when the feet are wet for
long periods of time. It can be pretty painful,
but it can be prevented and treated but if not
treated your toes would fall off.


Trench rats. 
Many troops were awakened by rats crawling
across their faces so they had cats sleep by them
to prevent rats crawling on their faces.  It has
been said that trench rats would always go into
the kitchen making holes through tins making a
lot of noise in the middle of the night and if they
are still hungry and can't find food they would
eat the toes of soldiers that are falling off.


Just imagine being in the trenches and having
rats on your face in the middle of the night and
your toes falling off.

The difference between WW1 and WW2

 The difference between WW1 and WW2


The difference between WW1 and WW2 both are very different
so here a few paragraphs about WW1 and WW2.


Well in WW1 was fought between the trenches and used machine
guns and poisonous gas, with a total of 20 million deaths and 21
million wounds World War began in July 1914 – 11 November
1918 after someone assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand
and lasted until 1918.


But in WW2 was fought using modern artillery and machines
utilizing more airplanes, ships, tanks, and submarines.  About
85 million people died in WW2. WW2 was the deadliest military
conflict in history. On September 1, 1939, Hitler invaded Poland
from the west two days later, France and Britain declared war
on Germany, beginning WW2.


Lots of people risked their lives in both WW1 and WW2, did you
know that plastic surgery was invented because of WW1 and also
12 million letters were delivered to the frontline every week.


World war 1 and 2 are completely opposites more than 1 million
people died with more people died in wW2.
Both WW1 and WW2 are very different from each other, but I
hope these few paragraphs explain the difference between WW1
and WW2.
