What was life like on the Western Front during World War One?

Answer: Nightmarish would be an understatement. You were constantly on edge. The anxiety from constantly fearing death was very prevalent. The conditions these soldiers lived in was very unsanitary as well, which gave way for disease to spread.

On the western front, the war was fought by soldiers in trenches. The trenches were long and narrow ditches dug into the ground where the soldiers lived. They were muddy, uncomfortable, and the toilets overflowed. This called some soldiers to develop medical problems.
