The foxhole is a crucial defensive position for one or two soldiers. ?️ Developed during World War I to protect infantry from artillery, tanks, and small arms fire, it evolved into a 4-5 foot deep shelter easily dug with simple tools. Adopted widely by both sides in World War II, its effectiveness was undeniable, especially after the Battle of Kasserine Pass. The Germans even created concrete versions called Ringstände as part of their Atlantic Wall fortifications. #Foxhole #ModernCombat #HistoryShorts #Craig #MilitaryHistory #WorldWarI #WorldWarII #InfantryTactics #MilitaryTactics #TrenchWarfare #HistoricalWeapons #KasserinePass #AtlanticWall #Ringstände
