”IN THE TRENCHES”
MONTHLY CHALLENGE

IN THE TRENCHES
JULY 2021

To fully understand, ‘IN THE TRENCHES’ one must understand - trench warfare. Trench warfare is a type of land warfare using occupied fighting lines largely comprising military trenches, in which troops are well-protected from the enemy's small arms fire and are substantially sheltered from artillery. Trench warfare became archetypically associated with World War I (1914–1918), when the Race to the Sea rapidly expanded trench use on the Western Front starting in September 1914 (Wikipedia).

IN THE TRENCHES is now used as a term that signifies… to have been through a lot together with someone. Specially through hard times (Urban Dictionary).
