Trench Whistle
This World War I Trench Whistle is made from metal that is plated in a silver finish. It has the date 1916 and an arrow stamped on it and is a replica of an original whistle. The whistle is mounted on a fold-over information card that has a colour image of British troops, an aircraft and a tank together with a red poppy on the front and has historical information about the whistle on the reverse. The whistle is presented in a clear bag with the header card attached to the top.
Information: During WWI officers would blow a whistle and thousands of men would stream out of an attacking trench and run across No Man’s Land into a hail of machine gun bullets and artillery fire from the enemy. This copy whistle is dated 1916, the year of the ill fated Somme campaign. It has an arrow stamped on it which was used to show the whistles were the property of the British Empire.
