It seems odd to think that trenches like these went on for miles marking the front line! These aren’t original trenches of course, they’ve been rebuilt.

With the weather conditions we had today, it was easy to understand why the troops got trench foot: they didn’t have the luxury of getting back on the coach to go and find a nice hot drink after half an hour. They didn’t even know if they’d be alive at the end of the day.
