The Making of a Legend, The Landing at Anzac Cove by Lambert.
Landing at dawn on 25th April 1915 about 8,000 Anzacs fought their way
off the narrow, stony beach. They moved upwards and inland through treacherous
terrain and fierce concentrated fire from entrenched and well prepared
Turkish positions. By evening they had gained some 2,000 metres and each
side lost about 2,000 men. After 8 months of fighting the troops were
withdrawn. Both the Allies and Turks had committed some 500,000 men each
to the ill fated Dardanelles campaign. The Anzacs had lost 10,000 killed
and 26,000 wounded.
