Chaos in the trenches, will it end? ?

Thousands die every day in the trenches, and life is absolutely miserable, but we must ask ourselves, why is it happening? The answer is pests, in the form of lice, rats, and other vile animals. They bite you and you fall ill, and things will only get worse, then the only thing you can hope for is to die. Not only that, but the rats eat your rations when you're not looking, start eating your toes when you sleep. Sometimes the rats would get as big as a cat that you would find in the back alleys of London. Food was also a problem, trying to feed millions of people in trenches which are hard to get to, is not easy. but there was always the upside of the cigarrettes, and tabacco. The declining hygene was also a problem, mainly because there was no way to clean yourself, or anywhere to put your waste, and the only way to protect yourself was to not have any cuts on the surface of your skin to avoid infections. but when was the last time you met anyone who fought in a war, who had flawless skin. when you did get an infection it was most commonly Dysentery-Really bad diarrhea-which would kill you from dehydration. Then there was always the threat of being killed, by either poison gasses, artillery shells, inducing shellshock, being snuck up on when you were being distracted, by going poop. But when you weren't waiting to be killed, you would be bored out of your mind, and you would hope to find some action and would actually not care if you died. That is why so many people are dying, it's just that mentality. Magni "Boss" Hammarstedt
