I have learnt a lot about World War 1 but mostly about trenches.
In World War 1 all the Men would take something like a diary or bible or a picture to remind them about their family. Some men would take something but purposely lose it because they were distressed and been away for too long to look at a picture and not cry.
World War 1 trenches.
Fighting trenches were usually about 4 m or 12 feet deep. Trenches were never straight but were dug in a zigzagging or stepped pattern.
This is one of the Men's exact letters.
20th of May. The New Zealand Infantry brigade came back today. We were very glad to see it. We are all Australians and New Zealanders here now and it is wonderful what this means to the men. they have the utmost confidence now in the people either side of them.
I went to an ANZAC Service my first ever one it is not a once and a life time thing but I will always go to another.
26/ April /2015. It is a very special day to remember all the men that gave their lives for us. Three planes were flying through the air in the shape of an arrow. Two gun shots were fired in two the air as a remembrance. speeches were presented and someone presented the last post.
