No Man’s Land• An empty patch of ground, about 25-foot
to 1 mile distance , between enemy trenches– Stripped of trees and blasted full of
holes– Those who
dared to venture out would likely be killed
![Page 32: Standard: 5. Recognize the moral as well as political implications of war 7. Identify on a map places related to the historic events studied and explain](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697c0241a28abf838cd4c0f/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)

minute• Artillery guns fired shells over the trenches

gases– Which would destroy the
lungs– And cause slow painful death

• Soldiers living in trenches were surrounded by machine-gun fire, flying grenades, and exploding artillery shells.
– Opposing forces had machine guns pointed at enemy trenches at all times
– And fired whenever a helmet or rifle appeared over the top.

Tanks• British forces developed armored tanks
to move into no-man’s-land.• Success was limited
– many got stuck in the mud.

Airplanes
• Air battles were called dogfights.
• Both sides used planes – to map and attack trenches

Land and Sea Battles
