Militär/försvar / WWI | | Engelska term eller fras: assembly trenches | On décrit les préparatifs britanniques avant le début de la bataille de la Somme :
At night [the soldiers] dug assembly trenches to reduce the width of no man's land and to cut gaps in the barbed-wire defenses that had survived in the 46th division's line of attack.
S'agit-il simplement d'un système/ensemble de tranchées ou de bien de quelque chose de plus spécifique ? |
| | | tranchées de rassemblement | Förklaring:
"creuser des abris et des tranchées de rassemblement bien profonds, transporter et. poser du fil métallique, livrer des charges de munitions à l'avant, ..."

"Temporary trenches were also built. When a major attack was planned, assembly trenches would be dug near the front trench. These were used to provide a sheltered place for the waves of attacking troops who would follow the first waves leaving from the front trench. "Saps" were temporary, unmanned, often dead-end utility trenches dug out into no-man's land. They fulfilled a variety of purposes, such as connecting the front trench to a listening post close to the enemy wire or providing an advance "jumping-off" line for a surprise attack. When one side's front line bulged towards the opposition, a "salient" was formed. The concave trench line facing the salient was called a "re-entrant." Large salients were perilous for their occupants because they could be assailed from three sides."
