Trench Warfare

  Over 70 grade 10 students got a realistic experience about war as they participated in a simulation trench clearing battle. The students were able to see what it felt like for soldiers in the trenches of WWI. The Living Museum, on the farm of Robin Barker-James in Tillsonburg, Ont., has a recreation of trenches and tunnels similar to ones used at Vimy Ridge.
