British soldiers going 'over the top' when they emerged from trenches and charged out over open land to attack the enemy. Soldiers did not look forward this moment, and certainly many of them must have regarded it as foolhardy and dangerous. Trench warfare was a type of land warfare using occupied fighting lines consisting largely of military trenches, in which troops are well-protected from the enemy's small arms fire and are substantially sheltered from artillery. The most famous use of trench warfare was the Western Front in World War I.

Shocking casualty rates suffered by troops on all sides who were sent “over the top”, during trench warfare but also due to the often horrific conditions the men endured whilst living in the trenches. Aside from the danger of enemy attacks, soldiers in the trenches faced other challenges. Trenches frequently became waterlogged and particularly heavy storms could lead to flooding. On the Western Front in the winter of 1915 the trenches became so wet that in one sector German soldiers reportedly began sitting on top of the trench walls just to dry off and avoid such nasty ailments.
