Descriptive Diary Of Ww1

During World War I, trench warfare was very common. It was a newer technique in battles as in wars prior to the Great World War, fighting was less invasive and men merely marched at each other from opposite ends of fields and fought until only one side remained standing or a white flag was hung high in surrender. In fact in older wars, the fighting was far less dangerous to the point where battles were often times viewed by locals who watched from side lines with really no threat of getting hurt. In World War I however, the fighting had upscaled to the most sadistic type the world had ever experienced. With the industrialist wave that had overcome us in the late 1800s into

Fear, the feeling of dread, apprehension or impending danger, it is a powerful emotion that most, if not all, feel. As a child fear may be of the dark, or as an elder it may be of death and the unknown after. A fear of something can come at any moment in time. It is easy to become afraid, but the hard part is learning to overcome it. As the main characters of the summer reading novels are put into fearful situations, they must learn to cope with it in order to help them survive their hardships.

“Our men are being put into the hottest fighting and are being sacrificed in harebrained ventures like Bullecourt and Passchendaele …and there is no one in War Cabinet to lift a voice in protest…so Australian interests are suffering badly and Australia is not getting anything like the recognition it deserves.” So wrote General, later Sir, John Monash to his wife on October the 18th 1917.

The affair I will discussing today is To what admeasurement did the Gallipoli landing bulge in annual of Australia's captivation in www 1 . With trenches getting forgot of the acquaintance and the abridgement of absorption they deserve

The meadow near the Western Front was nothing compared to the vast fields of the prairie back home. There, in what seems like another lifetime, was a harvest full of life, colour, and promise. Here, there was only death and harshness. Trevor, our Commander, had once described the scenery of these fields in France before the chaos. He had said it was filled with little red flowers and high green grass. After three years of fatalities and rain, the scene shifted to represent the misery. There was no colour here. Our uniforms that had once been a deep green were now covered with dried mud. The scene before me was bleak. The sky was gray; as it had been since the first day we made camp in these trenches. The ground was muddy with small pools of

We all sleep and rest and eat in the trenches, but it’s not paradise. One night, the sound of loud booms woke us up. We were being attacked by some very dangerous artillery. We could feel every boom and every crack in the dirt above us. Many soldiers were not prepared for this and got sick. The attack come out of nowhere and frightened all of us.

The boys and I are going away together for a while, we’re going to guard St Port Moresby. We’ve been told that we can bring our tennis rackets, cameras and all sorts of things. We are excited about going away, it gives us a chance to travel and see new places, which is why I joined the army.

I am sorry to say this, but I might be dead by the time you read this or not you never know if this could be my last letter to you during this time of war. Anyways I wanted to write this letter to see how you were doing I hope you have been doing well back home. Also please say hello to my little brother tell him i'm doing well out here. I have been lucky enough to not have been injured during any of the battles out her in no man's land.

Everywhere thick, hot gory blood drips from comrade’s wounds. The stench of death hovers in the air and encases every movement. A faint buzz whizzes into the ear drums as shells and bullets fluster by with brilliant flashes of light. These are the everyday encounters of a soldier on the front. No words can even begin to touch the realness of terror that soldiers experience every day. Young recruits are reeled into this torture and sacrifice everything they have and love for their country. Lively hopefuls are transformed into the unfeeling. The soldiers must think of memories as, “too grievous for us [them] to reflect on them at once.” (pp. 138) They forget, lest their state of mind plummet. Few, if any capture the graphic life and thoughts of the soldier better than Enrich Maria Remarque in his moving book All Quiet on the Western Front. This epic book follows a young German military recruit named Paul Bäumer and his classmates who come face to face with the gunfire of the Allies during World War I. Through Remarque’s well-chosen words and imagery, an average citizen is transported from their comfy home to the trenches and front lines of heated battle. In Enrich Maria Remarque’s All Quiet on the Western Front, he successfully illustrates what it’s like to be a soldier during war and the extent in which everyday people sacrifice their lives when fighting for their country.

I am writing you in a moment where i feel safe writing without the enemy coming down on me. I miss you both so very much and I wish I could be home with you again. I am very sorry I haven't wrote you in a long time but for months the enemy has attacked now. It has honestly been one of the scariest and most difficult times in my life. I know that this fight is when I feel the most detached from you but these are the moments that I am really serving you the most.

For my second journal entry, I went to the World War 1 museum. I heard of some of my peers going there and I learned that the World War 1 museum is in Kansas City, so it is close by. I am really pleased I chose this museum to go to because it was really entertaining and I learned a great deal.

The events portrayed within this book serve to help the readers visualize and comprehend the horrendous and dreadful experiences that the war had generated in the lives of those living in the 20th century during the hardships of the endless,brutal, and frightening conflict between the countries of the world. The lethality of the shellings, biological warfare, and machine guns added with the staggering of the unprogressive trench warfare was the cause of a long-lasting war that proved detrimental to both of the opposing sides, the Triple Entente, composing of Russia, France, and the United Kingdom, and the Triple Alliance, composing of Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Italy. This war story deeply conveys a sense of what war truly is. Through its erratic moments of constant shellings and the adrenaline-pumping sluggishness of trench warfare, the true essence of the commonly known “great war” has revealed itself in a sorrowful yet realistic light, devoid of idealness. This book reveals an account of how a generation was lost during the war, creating a tense and downbeat tone repetitively utilized throughout the book,

Approaching the American breastworks in the pitch-black night was not the most reassuring feeling in the world. True, our forces were far superior to the motley crew of American soldiers that lay before us, but confidence could only do so much for a man in my position. The thought of dying at the hands of these insane, untrained American soldiers crept into my mind and distracted me from my surroundings. Stumbling slightly in the darkness, I stopped dead in my tracks when I realized just how close we were to the breastworks. I held my breath and crouched down, as did many other men around me. All other sounds around us ceased. Slow, cautious movements and near-inaudible whispers came from behind the breastworks. I scanned my dark surroundings

Trenches are a place during WW1 where troops from either country, use to shoot the enemy of protect themselves from possible artillery attacks, There are ups and downs to trenches in WW1, the positives is that Trenches help the troops from being blown into 1 million pieces, also it helps them get a better, and safer way of the troops shooting the enemy. But the down sides of the Trenches are that the way of travel throughout the trenches is a wooden planks, which is a disadvantage because of the gaps between the wooden planks, which led to water from underneath the wooden planks getting to the soldiers boots, and inside their boots. This is bad because this could lead to a terrible disease called Trench foot which is basically a disease developed

Living in this time period is a very hard thing to do. World War I brought a lot of changes, some of them were good, and some were not so good. I was a nurse during World War 1. I helped injured soldiers heal quickly so they can go win our freedom. I served the U.S Army Reserve. My name is Nurse Helen Fairchild.
