British armies launched gigantic attacks on Somme 1916

On 16 July 1916, after an intensive bombardment, the British armies launched a series of gigantic attacks on the Somme, which persisted until November. Troops advanced to the attack over ground pulverised by artillery. Spades were carried, for trenches were everywhere wrecked and battered, and fresh ones had to be dug after every attack.
