Not very interesting photograph of a road… until you consider it represents the front line with Anzacs to the left and Turks to the right.
Respect to Mehmetçik Memorial showing a Turkish Soldier carrying a wounded Anzac officer.
Tombstone for Lieutenant J.Burge, 2nd Aust. Light Horse, Killed in Action 7th August 1915
The Gallipoli Museum – excellent!
A very touching Turkish Memorial with an aged veteran and his young grand daughter. Somehow we need to communicate these lessons to our youth.
