English: Shell hole, Western Front. Soldiers laughing as they peer through a shell hole in a brick wall. Their cheerful faces and the lighthearted caption are at odds with the truth that the constant shelling was one of the most difficult aspects of the war for many soldiers. Many men suffered severe mental distress from shell-shock, a condition which the army tried, at first, to deny. As the war progressed, heavier guns could fire shells over the heads of their own side and far into the enemy lines. By the end of the war, for example, some of the howitzers could fire shells weighing 2000 pounds (900 kilos) over distances of 11 miles (18 kilometres). |
