Trenches Foot And Ww1 Plastic Bags To Prevent Trench Foot?
Plastic bags to prevent trench foot? - trenches foot and ww1
During the two world wars (especially the 1st World War), people often trench feet, because the cold, wet feet for a long time, why do not they ever thought about protecting the use of plastic bags on foot? I'm sure there were plastic bags between 1914-1918, is not it?
only two plastic bags or parts made of plastic and a rubber band or a fastening device to another? would have decreased the number of cases of trench fever, and perhaps even have increased the effectiveness of the attacks, perhaps even prevent the Second World War.
their opinion?

Aforementiond I agree with the answer when he said: "Put plastic bags on their feet with duct tape and locked them for a week. You see what happens."
The same rule applies when you plastic garbage bags and liners for use in a sauna. Your feet will still sweat, and I only with the same problems as the bacteria then. Even in the cold, professional license, and (worse) trench foot is a major concern.
My friend is a World War reenactor, and he said, they get the grossest cases of sweat, nasty feet two days to revive - weeks, imagine what it was!
The plastic will do nothing to prevent cold feet. If they are wet / sweat, this could exacerbate the problem.
What in the World War II and is still today that soldiers had discovered that half of synthetic (nylon Yes) to really help remove the skin before applying Wollsocken moisture from the skin to wool, so that the feet are long hair.
The use of synthetic medium, under or over socks is a very popular way to get your feet warm and dry. I have many years he was in the army - to be the best way to keep your feet dry and warm - even in the coldest conditions.
