-Weapons.
-Being on the front line.
-Gas bombs in the trenches.
-Long exhausting walks.
-Carrying heavy equipment.
-Sneak attacks.
-The harsh weather conditions.
These reasons came to my mind while thinking of the great number of casualties. The weapons were large, heavy and hard to maneuver. The sneak attacks describe itself, along with the Gas Bombs. The walks look horrendous and having to deal with the difficult weather conditions must have been a challenge in itself. Having the number of casualties that were recorded hurt society because no one would know if they had lost a member of their family. Everyone would worry and the only way to know is if you receive a letter (which would take longer than they would have wanted)
