The telephone was impractical and costly to the success of their offensive plan. 50,000 metres of telephone cable was unraveled, however, beyond the front, the cable laid on the battlefield were utterly useless, as they were instantly destroyed by shells. The Germans did not suffer these problems. Even for gunners to distinguish between friend or foe, relied on inaccurate means of communication, where…

One was the attritional wearing down of the German army. The war took a turning point in 1916, up until then some kind of peace could have been reached and an agreement made, this all changed in 1916. Instead of trying to break through each other’s lines the armies concentrated on simply killing as many of the enemy as they could.

The trench itself is left relatively unscathed with the exception of places where shells landed nearby. Being in a trench keeps me and my fellow men relatively safe during the shelling.…

father apart rather than converging. OKH had also severely underestimated the Russian order of battle. German soldiers began to lose morale as each division they defeated was immediately replaced by another. As more and more Russian divisions came on line the German momentum started to slow. These problems were compounded by the state of German armor. The rough Russian roads and great distances these tanks had to move were taking their toll. More and more tanks were breaking down or had…

The plan was simple, practically unbeatable, and a sure win for the Allies. Nothing could possibly allow it to fail. The Battle of the Somme was a complete military blunder when the fight broke out on that dreadful July 1st morning in 1916, to when it ended on November 18th, 1916. Despite the fact that the French needed relief from the German’s at Verdun, the Somme Offensive was only supposed to be a short battle. What it turned into was a mass killing of numerous troops on both sides of the…

As he was running looking for a way out he started to notice more and more dead bodies on the ground. “Out of my way, screamed a huge dude with a machine gun.
