No mentions of fox-holes.Lavendertwilight89 Fandoms: InuYasha - A Feudal Fairy Tale If there was an appropriate period for 'foxhole' to describe the British defensive arrangements, First Ypres comes close. He provides a graphic description of the small disconnected pits not linked up in a continuous system. R A Lloyd in his Trooper in the Tins (later re-titled as Troop-horse and Trench) describes in detail the rudimentary holes in the ground at First Ypres. Relating this to the BBC radio 'Home Front' description of trenches, it would seem to be a fundamental misunderstanding of the differences between a trench and a foxhole. More evidence may yet be forthcoming, however the case looks pretty thin at the moment. Not a single mention in over 120 British unit diaries in Gallipoli (1915 - same period as the newspaper clipping) where the trench systems were less developed than the Western Front. I have trawled 55 digitised regimental histories with a zero return. If it was in common usage one might expect to find more evidence quite easily. If it was in common usage by the British there would be no need for the quotation marks.īuilding a robust case on such slim evidence is rather difficult. Given it is in quotation marks and specifically relates to the German 'fox-holes', one might be forgiven for thinking it is providing an English translation of ' fuchsloch'. So far there only seems to be one recorded mention during the war years - the newspaper article that SeaJane found. My personal belief is that theories have to be proven, not dis-proven. There is a danger of falling into a trap that is common in GWF debates. not having the inclination to spend their limited time on digging formal trenches. If the term is indeed British and from around the period of the GW, I would guess that it probably came from the Territorials, who would perhaps have dug such impromptu shelters during their weekend and annual exercises before the war.
Are they not, at least in the US usage, more characteristic of a war of relatively rapid movement, where advancing troops have to improvise temporary shelters because there are not always abandoned enemy positions to take over and 'turn'? As regards the use of 'fox hole' in the OH and regimental histories, many of the officers involved in writing these may have been hunting men, but most are unlikely to have had much to do with fox holes, which were more the concern of terrier-men and hunt servants. While Parkinson's more commonly affects older peoplethe average age of onset is 60 years old, according to Johns HopkinsFox was. In 1999, Fox broke his silence on his Parkinson's diagnosis for the first time, discussing the intricacies of the disease with People. but perhaps, in conditions of entrenched positional warfare, they did not occur very often. Fox noticed was a twitch in his pinky finger. With men in the army from country districts virtually everywhere in the British Isles, someone will doubtless have used the term 'fox hole' to describe an excavation that reminded him of such. The OED onward reference to a US English dictionary repeats the allegedly British and WW1 origins of the term, which seems to exclude it having been in use during the ACW, for example.
