Some toilet brain lunatic called "Trenchfoot"turned up at our singaround a couple of weeks ago and said he thought that we were a bunch of queers!

Please do not throw cigarette butts into the urinals. They get soggy and hard to light.

Please do not throw matches on the floor of the latrine. Remember: crab lice can pole-vault!

I've heard of trench mouth. I've heard of athlete's foot. What is trench foot?

I've also heard of tennis elbow. I've heard of flautist's mouth. And of housemaid's knee. Also of hammer toes. Any of these related to trench foot?

Standing too long in very soggy conditions. Restricted circulation is also a factor. Named, unsurprisingly, from it's repeated occurence in WWI on the Western Front. Try here or here, for more detailed descriptions. A quick Google will turn up more pages than you'd like... ;-)

The prevention of trench foot is still taught, at least in the US military. We were warned about it when we walked the levees during floods on the Mississippi. Like frostbite, it's one of those things that are often not taken seriously until it's too late.

My brother got "trenchfoot" in the Philippines during the Korean war. Sounds to me that you're really talking about "trench - mouth!" Bob

Is trenchfoot what you get when you put your foot in your potty mouth?

Another punchline to don't throw cigarette butts into the urinials - it makes them soggy and almost impossible to light....

Trench foot occurs when feet are cold and damp while wearing constricting footwear (i.e, tightly laced Army boots and firmly wound puttees). Unlike frostbite, trench foot does not require freezing temperatures and can occur in temperatures up to 60° Fahrenheit (16° Celsius). Some people develop it with only twelve hours of exposure.

The first signs and symptoms of trench foot are numbness, blue skin and swelling, all of which indicate that circulation to the feet is failing. As the condition worsens, the skin breaks down, leading to blisters and sores, which quickly become infected (duh). If left untreated, trench foot usually results in gangrene. If treated properly and quickly, complete recovery is normal, but the feet hurt like the dickens as feeling returns.

Trench mouth, on the other hand, is an ulcerative disease caused by a spirochete called Treponema vincentii. It, too, is pretty horrible.

Trench Coat is also very painful. It's picked up while waiting in porno movie lines.

A toilet foot is easily obtained in a traditional French toilet (can also be found in Belgium sometimes, and in the former French colonies). It consists of a simple rectangular hole in the floor. When defecating one can easily besmear his feet. Did it once in the Algerian desert, in a convent of the White Friars. It is worse than eating frogs.

I do my best to avoid both, Wilfried. (You can also get toilet foot from some toilets in Asia.)
