please help!. :)Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
In the First World War all infantrymen were provided with bayonets!. Most were of the standard knife variety, but the French preferred a needle bayonet and some German soldiers favoured a saw-bladed version!. The bayonet was the infantryman's primary close combat weapon in trench warfare!. However, some soldiers preferred to rely on clubs or knuckledusters in these situations!. The importance of the bayonet as an offensive weapon was undermined during the war because of the increasing use of machine guns against an advancing army!.
