Three types of Trenches

Nomans land was between the trenches- typically 12 feet - Switzerland to the English Channel- Many times you slept in them- Some were good some were bade- they usually had something you could steop up on something in the trench- They used Chlorine and Mustard gas and dropped them in by airplane or shot out by guns- Flamethrowers, granades, machine guns, pistols,-

Gas warfare, Often times if wind changed direction you would be hitting yourself so often tiems you had to go away from the wind- declared illegal after ww1- tear gas- the ashyxiant gas and the mustard gas are both very dangerous- There are rules of war that both countries abide by although some times it leads to war trials. Tanks were not as good as www2- they were very slow under ten miles an hour struggled getting over trenches- To soften the enemy up a little bit - to get shell shock- Germany best known for submarine warfare- Zeppelins were used to bomb - not very fast- although can go very high- they went on spying mission- They are very flamible- Mines in the water to try to slow down enemy - Made Sonar- depth charges- not necessarily a direct hit - Airplanes came a long way- SPAD XIIII, Sopwith Pop- dog fights- The Red Baron- animals at war- very curel- Death and destruction- everything was just torn apart- Turkish Massacre of the Americans
