The trenches of WW I were unpleasant at any time of year; at Christmas they were cold and snowy, in addition to their usual unpleasant features. Trench warfare could accurately be described as a prolonged nightmare.

Christmas in the trenches is a reference to how soldiers might celebrate Christmas. Sometimes a Christmas truce was declared, and both sides of the conflict took time off for the holiday, but many times there was no special recognition of the day. If possible, soldiers might get a special meal in the mess tent, and, if the situation allowed, they might join together in song and in prayer.
