news and politics war and conflictsHow did World War 1 affect the homefront?
In this way, what does Homefront mean in ww1?
Home front is the informal term for the civilian populace of the nation at war as an active support system of their military. By this logic, if factories and workers producing material are part of the war effort, they become legitimate targets for attack, rather than protected non-combatants.
Beside above, how did the homefront support the war?
The United States home front during World War II supported the war effort in many ways, including a wide range of volunteer efforts and submitting to government-managed rationing and price controls. Gasoline, meat, and clothing were tightly rationed.
No Man's Land was a place both armies would used to patrol, repair or add barbed wire to their front lines. Trench warfare had a massive impact on soldiers as it caused huge amounts of casualties on the battlefield and also caused health problems of the battlefield. Trenches were infested with rats and lice.
