In the British Army, policies were developed to help the soldiers keep their feet dry — the surest way of preventing the disease. Soldiers were told to dry their feet, and keep them dry by changing socks several times a day. After the first year of the First World War, British troops were instructed to keep at least three pairs of socks with them and to frequently change them. The use of whale oil was also successful in combating trench<unk> . A British battalion in front line positions could be expected to use ten gallons of whale oil every day.
