Engineers in World War I

Abstract

The First World War was a turning point in the history of the military engineer troops: the organization, the task and the tools have changed significantly. New tasks and new challenges have emerged, unprecedented destructive devices have been deployed. The military enginners faced these changes unprepared, but for that they could not prepare, they tried to resolve by ingenuity, perseverance and professional humility. Of course this was achieved by a lot of sacrifice, and I remember on this fact is by this paper.
