Source A THE BATTLE OF THE SOMME- TIMELINE

Date Event 23 June Allies launch preliminary artillery barrage 1 July First Allied Offensivve begins Battle of the Somme 14 July Second Allied Offensive 29 August Hindenburg and Ludendorff replace Falkenhayen as German commanders on

the Western Front 15 September British use tanks for the first time. Third Allied Offensive 25 September First British conscripts arrive at the Somme. Fourth Allied Offensive 2 October Heavy rain over next week turns battlefield into muddy bog 18 November Snow falls and battle ends 3 miles short of Allied objectives for the first day. Source B Despatch from Commander-in –Chief of British Armies in France, Douglas Haig, 29 December 1916.

Unfortunately, very unfavourable weather set in and continued with scarcely a break during the remainder of October... Poor visibility seriously interfered with the work of our artillery; and constant rain turned the mass of hastily dug trenches for which we were fighting into channels of deep mud. These conditions multiplied the difficulties of attack to such an extent that it was found impossible to exploit the situation with the rapidity necessary to enable us to reap the full benefits of the advantages we had gained. The enemy’s power has not yet been broken... The German Army... suffered defeat on the Somme this year. Neither the victors nor the vanquished will forget this; and, though bad weather has given the enemy a respite, there will undoubtedly be many thousands in his ranks who will begin the new campaign with little confidence in their ability to resist our assaults or to overcome our defence.

Source C Extract from an article by L Black, Women at War and Work,published in History of the Twentieth Century, A J P Taylor and J M Roberts (eds), Purnell, London,1968

The outward sign of their freedom were flaunted gaily. Many used language that would have shocked their mothers; many started to wear cosmetics; smoking became widespread; and women bought drinks in public house... During the war they completely ousted long dresses and camisoles. Well-meaning committees tried to discourage Land Girls, who like most women doing heavy work or working outside, wore trousers from wearing them off-duty, but without much success......Young girls were gripped by ‘khaki fever’ and hovered around army camps. By the end of the war the illegitimacy rate had increased 30 per cent.

Section D An extract from The First World War, by Robin Lobban, published in 1993

The gaps left in many places on the Home Front in Britain were soon being filled by women...Soon women were occupying positions traditionally filled by men in industry, farming, transport, commerce and the professions. Some also served in special women’s service corps, while others joined ambulance and nursing units

serving in France..... The ability of women to undertake all types of work astonished many observers at the time, and their contributions won all-round praise. Particularly admired were the munitions workers, for they faced real dangers with great courage and determination.

Source E Attack, a poem by Siegfried Sassoon, a British junior officer on the Western Front,1917. At dawn the ridge emerges massed and dun (brown) In the wild purple of the glow’ ring sun, Smouldering through spouts of drifting smoke that shroud The menacing scarred slope; and, one by one, Tanks creep and topple forward to the wire The barrage roars and lifts. Then, clumsily bowed With bombs and guns and shovels and battle-gear Men jostle and climb to meet the bristling fire Lines of grey, muttering faces masked with fear, They leave their trenches, going over the top, While time ticks blank and busy on their writs, And hope, with furtive eyes and grappling fists, Flounders in mud. O Jesus make it stop! Source F Extract from ‘The Trenches’, found on the internet site:www.harris-academy.com (accessed March 14 2010) In the trenches, each day was much the same as the last. Nothing really ever changed unless there was a battle. The day-to –day work consisted of repairing damage to the trench, filling sandbags,carrying supplies,running errands...The most common task carried out by soldiers was cleaning their weapons. Daily medical checks were also part of the soldier’s daily

routine...During the rest of the day movement was restricted in the trenches...Soldiers used this time to catch up on some much needed sleep and write letters to their sweethearts and home. With the darkness of the night the trenches came to life-men were sent to fetch vital food, water and maintenance supplies... Patrols into no-man’s land would also be carried out under the cover of darkness, to repair breaks in the barbed wire and some were sent out to “Listening posts”hoping to hear

information from the enemy.
