Submarine Warfare:
Submarines were first used in the First World War but were mainly used for attacking merchant ships supplying resources to the UK (because the UK is an island and requires most of its resources to be imported). However, in the Second World War, they were actually used for combat. One of the most well known submarines were the German U-boats; they were used to attack land and sea targets and also other submarines.
Women’s roles:
At first, women were mainly meant to take care of the family whilst the men were away at war. However, as more and more able-bodied men left to fight, there were more jobs which no one was working for. This led to the women taking the place of men and working in tough conditions such as: ammunition production, aircraft manufacturing and farming.
