The time it took to dig trenches during World War I varied depending on factors such as the type of terrain and the availability of tools and manpower. Typically, soldiers could dig about 2 to 3 feet of trench per day under combat conditions, but with more time and resources, deeper and more complex trenches could be constructed in a matter of weeks. Overall, complete trench systems could take several weeks to months to establish fully.
3 men dig 6 trenches in 4 days==> each man digs (6/3) = 2 trenches in 4 days==> each man digs (4/2) = 1/2 trench per day.==> Given 4 men, you get (4 x 1/2) = 2 trenches per day.==> It takes them (24/2) = 12 days to dig 24 trenches.
During war , soldiers dig long trenches to hide from the enemy's attack. Trenches are dug in mud hence keep the trench cold and makes the survival easy for the soldier.

Fox holes were not in the trenches. If you were caught in the open when an enemy barrage or bombardment came in you were in trouble. Your only chance would be to dig a hole big enough to get your body down below ground level very quickly, this is a fox hole. Often the only thing to dig with is a bayonet, it does not take as long as you think. Believe me, its amazing how quick you can do it when somebody is trying to kill you.
He would be able to dig two fifths of a hole in one day.
