Trench fever is a specific relapsing, infectious disease transmitted from man to man by the body louse, Pediculus humanus var. corporis. Blood and urine are infectious over a long period. It was first recognized during WWI during which period it is estimated to have caused roughly 25% of all cases of illness in the British Army in France and in the German and Austrian armies. It was especially prevalent among the heavily louse-infested troops in the field. [Saunders1945]
