What Is Gallipoli A Military Failure
Gallipoli Essay Eloise Cook On April 25th at 4:30am, the greatest military failure had begun. The original plan was to secure 3 major landmarks–
Bald Hill, Scrubby Knoll (Anderson Knoll) and Gaba Tepe using the 9th, 10th and 11th battalion to secure and 12th for backup. As the three boats
rowed in, the one to the far right made a misjudgement and crossed over to the middle; creating confusion on what they were attacking. This was the
first of many mistakes that were made. By 2pm, the plan had failed. "Lack of sufficient intelligence and knowledge of the terrain, along with a fierce
Turkish resistance, hampered the success of the invasion."(History.com staff.) "While the campaign is considered a military failure, Gallipoli became a

The Gallipoli Campaign
On 1914 thousands of Australian men came forward to what was then called the 'Gallipoli Campaign' Australia had been called to war because we
were a member of the British Empire. Australia's Prime Minster at the time by the name of Andrew Fisher made a speech that we will help back up
Mother Britain and promised to support Britain 'to the last man to the last shilling' Britain, France, Ireland and Russia were part of an alliance called
the Triple Entente. The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand inSarajevo on 28th June 1914. This triggered World War 1 because Austria Hungary
threatened war on Serbia. Germany sided by Austria–Hungary and Russia sided with the Serbians. That's where the triple entente came into play, since

"Damn the Dardanelles! They will be our grave!" So said Admiral Fisher, the Commander of the Royal Navy in a letter to Winston Churchill on April
5th, 1915. Fisher's impassioned statement was to prove itself chillingly accurate in the disastrous military operation that followed. Following the Great
War many military thinkers attempted to refine the principles of warfare to avoid the horrors of trench warfare, and military disasters such as the
Gallipoli campaign. One of these thinkers was British military historian J.F.C Fuller, who developed nine principles of warfare to guide a
well–orchestrated and successful military operation. In the following essay I will be applying these nine principles – mass, objective, offensive,
simplicity, economy of force, manoeuvre, unity of command, security, and surprise– to the Gallipoli military operation to reveal the glaring flaws in
Churchill's original plan and in it's execution by the Commanding Officers of the Allied forces. In December 1914 during a memorandum to the War
Council, the year before the events in Gallipoli were to take place, Lloyd George (the Minister of Munitions) said "'Expeditions which are decided
upon and organized with insufficient care generally end disastrously." Indeed, this statement would prove true in Gallipoli – with over 250,000 Allied
soldiers losing their lives on the battlefield by the time of the last evacuation on January 9th, 1916. It is widely accepted that Winston Churchill holds

Gallipoli Analysis
World War 1– Anzac Legend The Gallipoli campaigns significant impact Australian society in many ways and contributed to the making of an

World War 1 is such a significant part of Australian history, that Australia has dedicated a day in remembrance of the fallen soldiers who fought,
which falls on 25th April. The day marks the anniversary of the first major military action fought by Australian and New Zealand forces. More than
8,000 Australian soldiers have died in the campaign. Gallipoli had a profound impact on Australians at home, and 25th April soon became the day on
which Australians remembered the sacrifice of those who died in the war. Although they failed the military objectives at Gallipoli, the actions of
Australian and New Zealand soldiers during the campaign left a powerful legacy. What became known as the 'ANZAC Legend' became an important
part of the history of both Australia and New Zealand, changing the ways in which they both view their past and

and to acknowledge their courage and bravery. Some would say The Anzac Legend all began when Britain declared they were in need of help and it
was Australia's duty to go to their aid. Australia tossed aside experience and opted for youth. There were big incentives to go. To travel and visit
foreign places, economic reasons, to be with their mates but the most incentive of all was that Britain needed help. Although these facts are all true one

On the 21st of April the Soldiers were given the nod to go ahead with the landing by Sir Ian Hamilton who wrote an inspiring letter that probably
gave the troops a great boost of confidence. They landed on the 25th of April at Anzac Cove with no fear just a killer instinct and a do or die
attitude which had to be adopted for its the only way that a war can be fought . These characteristics were underlined at the Nek, better known as
The Battle of the Ridges. The Anzacs charged at the Turks with Bayonets in hope to gain control of the heights as this would be one of the only
hopes of victory. Although there was very little gained out of the plan the Movie "Gallipoli" shows the bravery and the fight of the troops even
when they were to meet almost certain doom they still fought on or did their best for the Anzacs and for their country. The Anzacs who were under
adversity in extremely hot summer conditions and many troops were suffering from diseases. There was also a lack of suitable facilities to store the
food and a lot of it got spoiled, which caused illness among the troops. They still managed to keep their mateship and camaraderie that is fitting of the
Anzac Legend. There was a great admiration for the Intelligence of the Australians and their initiative. These tactics were flawless for example they
used to put a hat on a stick to draw Turkish fire. They made bombs from old tin cans, nails, shrapnel and other metal. One

The landing at Gallipoli on 25 April 1915 is often considered the most important event of the Gallipoli campaign of the First World War. Consequently,
events and experiences that deserve equal or greater recognition are disregarded. The battle of Lone Pine was a fine display of courage. The attack was
planned to draw the attention of the Turkish and support another attack attempting to break the stalemate in August. Many soldiers of different
nationalities arrived in early August to support the cause (McAnulty, 4– 5 August, 1915). The attack commenced on August 6 when the Allied soldiers
bombarded Turkish lines for one hour, resulting in fierce hand–to–hand fighting. Soldiers from both sides were seen lying dead on the ground, many in

The Battle of Gallipoli David Cumo Ms. Beck Honors World Cultures Period 7 19 May 2017 The Battle of Gallipoli, also referred to as The Gallipoli
Campaign of 1915–16 or the Dardanelles Campaign, was a decisive battle in World War One during which Allied Powers attempted to take control
over the sea route between Europe and Russia. Overall, the battle is largely considered a failure. There were many forces that acted against the Allies
during the campaign, main causes of the loss were the repelling of the initial naval attack, the failure of the invasion of the Gallipoli Peninsula by the
British, French, and ANZAC (Australian and New Zealand Army Corps), and the high level of resistance from the Turks, and an extreme lack in

A stray mine sunk the French battleship Bouvet with its' six hundred sailors still on board. Another French battleship, Inflexible, struck a mine close to
where Bouvet had sunk earlier. Inflexible, however, did not sink. It stayed afloat and eventually became beached. Due to the inexperience of the men
sailing the minesweepers, the constant bombardment of Ottoman artillery proved to be too much for them. Many retreated and abandoned their ships,
leaving many mines still intact. Seventeen of the Allied ships were damaged or sunk by the time the battle had ended. The Allies then began to plan a
ground invasion of the Dardanelles and sent two submarines into the straits. Unfortunately, they too were lost to mines. Luckily, the British submarine
HMS B11 managed to enter into the strait unharmed and on December 13, 1959. It sunk the Ottoman Battleship, MesГ»diye. It was docked at Sari
Sighlar Bay and was being used as a floating fortress by the Ottomans. The Allies also managed to use their submarines to overpower the Ottomans in
the Sea of Marmara. They were able to sink large numbers of Ottoman ships, including, one battleship, one destroyer, five gunboats, eleven troop
transports, forty–four supply ships, and 148 sailing vessels between April and December, 1915, while only losing eight submarines themselves. This

Essay On Gallipoli
Are the outcomes of war determined by the commanding officers, or other outside factors? Aging generals and poor communication were large
factors at Gallipoli and may have been the difference between victory and defeat in many cases. Another component of the war at the peninsula was
the hostile terrain. Nasty cliffs and plants were the least of the worries for soldiers at the Gallipoli peninsula. Traditional, archaic generals, inefficient
methods of dealing with the wounded, and ruthless terrain would spell disaster for British, French, and Australian troops at the invasion of Gallipoli.
With generals retired since the 1880's, command was very aged and unprepared for World War One in 1915. The average age for officers at Gallipoli

Military technology and schooling are constantly evolving and improving, so unfit leadership is a thing of the past. Battle planning takes exponentially
longer than it did in World War I, and plans are reviewed by a panel of experts for possible outcomes and strategies, not written up by a single person.
With the invention of drones, and the evolution of globalization, unscouted areas of land are growing smaller every day. Drones allow us to see the
enemy and the land they are inhabiting from thousands of miles away, in a bunker where the pilot is not at risk of danger. Soldiers and officers are
always informed of the terrain they are being deployed into, so there are no surprises on the battlefield. I believe that the commanding officers do not
determine the outcomes of war. They do deliver the orders and decide the actions of the troops, but they alone can not decide the results of battle. Had
there been better intelligence of the land, more advanced communication, and fewer inexperienced doctors, the battle for Gallipoli and WWI as a
whole could have been very different, without the needless sacrifice of life from both

Essay on The Failures of Gallipoli
The Failures of Gallipoli The objectives of the campaign were to capture Gallipoli, and then invade Constantinople. This would knock Turkey out of
the war and encourage Turkey's neighbours to join on the allied side. Then they would invade Austria through the South and leave Germany isolated
and unable to continue the war. The allies failed these objectives due to many reasons. The first reason for failure was due to lack of training and
training in the wrong terrain. The allied and ANZAC troops were trained in the desert for a short period while Gallipoli was rocky with hills and
trenches. They were not trained for landings on enemy beaches and therefore a lot of soldiers died. This shows...show more content...
The initial attack and the second attack had four months difference giving the Turks time to get ready for the next attack. There were also rough
seas a lot of the time and it was difficult to wait for the right weather due to the decrease of morale in the soldiers. This gave the Turks to restore
order and get ready. This is also a sign of bad planning because they should have planned everything out much better and then attacked without
pauses so that the Turks didn't have a chance to rearm and train their men etc. Turkish soldiers were "ordered to die" by their superiors and not to
fight or retreat. An other big problem was the lack of water. There was no way to get desalinated water to the soldiers and therefore it was hard for
them to drink water and therefore couldn't fight very well. This also is a sign of bad planning leading to inadequate supplies because they should
have seen that it would be hard to get water to the troops and therefore thought about how to get it to them easily so they don't die of thirst. If they
thought about this maybe less troops would have died and therefore maybe there would not have been a lack of troops. Dust and dirt also made life very

The Battle of Gallipoli was a battle that had great significance in World War One. The Battle of Gallipoli was a struggle that took place in World War
One when British and Anzac forces tried to take a series of straits called the Dardanelles. The main purpose of this attack was to break through the
straits, Eliminate The Ottoman Empire from the war, and get troops and supplies to the Eastern Front where Russia had been fighting Germany all by
themselves. The first Allied troops to set foot at Gallipoli after a naval attack failure arrived on April 25, 1915. These troops will be the Allied side of

Only a select group of countries found any significance in it. Gallipoli is mainly celebrated in a small number of countries. one of said countries is
Turkey. Formerly part of the Ottoman Empire, Turkey celebrates the protecting of their land and home every year. The Ottoman Empire was seen
as a country that wasn't going to last long in terms of a war previous to the invasion of Gallipoli. Allied forces were not expecting to be there for a
whole ten to eleven months against small numbers of Turkish troops. However, Even though Turkish forces were few, they had the advantage of
terrain on their side. The Allied forces had inaccurate maps and charts that hadn't shown how rugged the terrain really was. Poor planning led to
the advantage of Turkish forces in the battles to come. The beaches that Allied troops had landed on were led into narrow paths which typically had
machine guns and other Turkish defenses posted in defensive positions that were able to keep Allied troops from gaining any more ground than
they already had. The Turkish people celebrate the overcoming of a seemingly superior force yearly and they hold great pride for the Battle of
Gallipoli. Another country to whom Gallipoli was of significance to was Australia. Australia was part of the Anzac forces in cooperation with Great
Britain at Gallipoli. Australia had made up most of the forces along with New Zealand. Australia hadn't really been recognized before Gallipoli was
launched in April of 1915.

What Was The Battle Of Gallipoli
The battle of Gallipoli was fought from February 19, 1915 – January 9, 1916 and eventually the Allied powers had lost. The Gallipoli campaign was
designed to knock Turkey out of the war. The allies wanted to invade Turkey and therefore be able to bring supplies and arms to the Russians for their
immense German front. By taking Turkey they would have been able to take the Balkans and attack Austria–Hungary from the south. The main aim of
the campaign was to stop Bulgaria joining the central powers forcing Austria out of war, leaving Germany isolated. Unfortunately the Turks knew they

Gallipoli Movie Review Essay
The film Gallipoli takes place during World War I's Gallipoli campaign in 1915. The two main characters in the film are Archy and Frank. Archy and
Frank are from Western Australia and they both enlist to fight in Gallipoli. Archy is an extremely fast runner who meets Frank at an athletics
competition. We can see from the beginning that Archy is eager to join the war. After being turned down because he was underage, he goes to Perth,
anxious for someone to accept him into the light horsemen. Frank, however, is skeptical about Australians wanting to join the war. He tells Archy that
it's "not our war to fight". Despite this statement, Frank eventually joins up into the Infantry. The story revolves around Frank and Archy's experiences
...show more content...
Archy and Frank stick together through all of the war training exercises in Egypt and they fight together on the front at Gallipoli. Another element of
mate–ship is shown in the last part of the film. When the final battle of Gallipoli approaches, Archy persuades Major Barton to assign Frank as his
runner because Archy knows that Frank does not have as much commitment as he does on the fighting service. Archy gets Frank a safer position and
decided to sacrifice his own life for his best mate. (Gammage) Some more ideals that are glorified in the film are bravery and honor. The experiences
at Gallipoli gave Australians a new identity which made them distinguishable from any other nation. At the start of the film we see that almost
everyone wants to enlist in the war. Although many Australian men enlist totally naive to the dangers awaiting them, once they are in Gallipoli they
fight fearlessly, with the attitude that they are doing it for their country. Anyone who is studying Australian history would do well to watch this film.
The film is historically accurate which means that students can use it as a direct source of information and evidence. The fact that the film is
portrayed as a dramatized story makes the many aspects of Australia and its participation of World War I much easier to understand than a any text
book would. (Broadbent) The film creates a feeling of empathy which

Why Was Gallipoli Important In Australia
The meaning of the Anzac legend has changed overtime as it has been disputed and altered with the way people interpret the different events of
World War One. This has become specifically apparent in recent years due to the 100 year anniversary of the Gallipoli landing with many debating
whether Gallipoli was the most significant event in world war one. During world war one there were many battels on the western front that are if not
more significant than the Gallipoli campaign, such as the battle of Hemel's that in addition to Gallipolis bravery and sacrifice there was superb
Australian military planning, perfect execution and great successes. 2
The landing at Gallipoli is by far the most celebrated aspect of Australia's campaign in the First World War with many Australians even tying their
national identity to the campaign though in comparison to numerous battels on the western front it was a minor failed campaign. The battel at Gallipoli
lasted 8 months With January 8, 1916 marking the full retreat from the shores of the Gallipoli Peninsula in Turkey. The Gallipoli campaign failed to
complete the majority of its objectives whilst sustaining heavy losses with 44,000 Allied, including more than 8700 Australians casualties. This is still

Gallipoli Campaign Essay
On the 25th of April 1915, I landed at North Beach, Gallipoli. It was World War I. The Huns (Germans) had been building their navy and were
challenging Britain's supremacy of the sea (Gallipoli Campaign, 2012). Britain sought to achieve control of the Dardanelles and the Bosporus straits,
capture Constantinople, and open a Black Sea supply route to her ally Russia (Gallipoli Campaign, 2012). In simple terms, the Gallipoli campaign was a
bloody war with Turkey over trade routes. Turkey had aligned themselves with the Ottoman Empire and barricaded the straits with mines and
fortresses. In the March of 1915, the navy (British) had tried and failed to clear the straits and so on April 25th, British, French, Australian, and New
Zealand troops landed along the east coast of the Gallipoli Peninsula, at North Beach, Cape Helles (British and French), and sadly, ANZAC Cove

The truth was that I joined because I wanted to¬¬ help my country (Australia) show its worth to the motherland, Britain (Early Reactions to War,

Propaganda, 2016). Enlisting seemed like a good idea as I thought seeing England and Europe would be an adventure and paid jobs were hard to come
by (The rush to enlist, 2016).
I went to Cairo for my army infantry training because there was no room in England. I took tours of the pyramids and tombs with my fellow
soldiers and we all drank heavily (Training & preparation, 2016). The army returned home many of my comrades for health and disciplinary reasons

Gallipoli; one of the great campaigns of World War 1, that took place between the Ottomans and the ANZAC'S in the Gallipoli peninsula of the
Ottoman Empire (Modern Day Turkey) between April 1915 and January 1916. The nations who took part in the remembrance of the Gallipoli
Campaign (Australia and New Zealand) consider the expedition fondly with pride, and not taking into account that it was a failure. In addition; the
ANZAC'S experienced a holocaust on a massive scale, which caused an influx of casualties, meaning it shouldn't be remembered as a appreciable
defeat. Moreover, the ANZAC'S have no antiquity originating from British origins, the ANZAC's need to provide a sense that they played major role
in the war and to present the struggles which the ANZACS had to face....show more content...
Reason being; it's a country which hasn't been colonised by Britain or other empires before the middle ages, being colonised for over 115 years. From
my experience; the Australian education system presents Gallipoli as a big deal and a main topic during history classes, instead of colonisation of the
country. ABC News even documented "This massive interest might be the result of careful marketing, by schools, publishers, the media or government
agencies, but it seems that while the expression of interest might be directed, the consumption of the products seem to reflect the popular interest rather
than manipulate it." Gallipoli is taken into the education system with pride, thus creating a student to have a mentality that the nations that took part in
the war have an eccentric

What Is Gallipoli A Military Failure

  • 1. What Is Gallipoli A Military Failure Gallipoli Essay Eloise Cook On April 25th at 4:30am, the greatest military failure had begun. The original plan was to secure 3 major landmarks– Bald Hill, Scrubby Knoll (Anderson Knoll) and Gaba Tepe using the 9th, 10th and 11th battalion to secure and 12th for backup. As the three boats rowed in, the one to the far right made a misjudgement and crossed over to the middle; creating confusion on what they were attacking. This was the first of many mistakes that were made. By 2pm, the plan had failed. "Lack of sufficient intelligence and knowledge of the terrain, along with a fierce Turkish resistance, hampered the success of the invasion."(History.com staff.)

  • 2. The Gallipoli Campaign On 1914 thousands of Australian men came forward to what was then called the 'Gallipoli Campaign' Australia had been called to war because we were a member of the British Empire. Australia's Prime Minster at the time by the name of Andrew Fisher made a speech that we will help back up Mother Britain and promised to support Britain 'to the last man to the last shilling' Britain, France, Ireland and Russia were part of an alliance called the Triple Entente. The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand inSarajevo on 28th June 1914. This triggered World War 1 because Austria Hungary threatened war on Serbia.

  • 3. "Damn the Dardanelles! They will be our grave!" So said Admiral Fisher, the Commander of the Royal Navy in a letter to Winston Churchill on April 5th, 1915. Fisher's impassioned statement was to prove itself chillingly accurate in the disastrous military operation that followed. Following the Great War many military thinkers attempted to refine the principles of warfare to avoid the horrors of trench warfare, and military disasters such as the Gallipoli campaign. One of these thinkers was British military historian J.F.C Fuller, who developed nine principles of warfare to guide a well–orchestrated and successful military operation. In the following essay I will be applying these nine principles – mass, objective, offensive, simplicity, economy of force, manoeuvre, unity of command, security, and surprise– to the Gallipoli military operation to reveal the glaring flaws in Churchill's original plan and in it's execution by the Commanding Officers of the Allied forces. In December 1914 during a memorandum to the War Council, the year before the events in Gallipoli were to take place, Lloyd George (the Minister of Munitions) said "'Expeditions which are decided upon and organized with insufficient care generally end disastrously." Indeed, this statement would prove true in Gallipoli – with over 250,000 Allied soldiers losing their lives on the battlefield by the time of the last evacuation on January 9th, 1916. It is widely accepted that Winston Churchill holds the most blame Get more content on HelpWriting.net

World War 1 also known as the 'First World War', 'The Great War' and 'The War to End All Wars', was a global war mainly taken place in Europe that lasted from 28 July 1914 to 11 November 1918. More than 70 million soldiers including 60 million Europeans were a part of one of the largest wars in history. Over nine million combatants and seven million civilians died as a result of the war.

World War 1 is such a significant part of Australian history, that Australia has dedicated a day in remembrance of the fallen soldiers who fought, which falls on 25th April. The day marks the anniversary of the first major military action fought by Australian and New Zealand forces. More than 8,000 Australian soldiers have died in the campaign. Gallipoli had a profound impact on Australians at home, and 25th April soon became the day on which Australians remembered the sacrifice of those who died in the war. Although they failed the military objectives at Gallipoli, the actions of Australian and New Zealand soldiers during the campaign left a powerful legacy.

  • 5. Battle Of Gallipoli Research Paper The Battle of Gallipoli was a campaign during World War 1, between April 1915 through January 1916.It took place on the Gallipoli peninsula which forms the bank of the Dardanelles. This strait provided a sea route for the Russian Empire,which would allow the Allies to transport them supplies.Winston Churchill wanted to gain complete control of the peninsula,so they launched a naval attack on the strait and a land attack on the Ottoman capital.He hoped that the downfall of Constantinople would bring the downfall of Turkey.The attack failed and became one of the Ottoman's greatest victories.This essay will describe the causes and effects of the battle.Also will describe in detail what occurred during this battle.

Essay about Gallipoli Gallipoli – The Anzac Legend The Anzac Legend is the source of the Aussie Fight and bravery that will live on for future generations to understand and to acknowledge their courage and bravery. Some would say The Anzac Legend all began when Britain declared they were in need of help and it was Australia's duty to go to their aid. Australia tossed aside experience and opted for youth. There were big incentives to go. To travel and visit foreign places, economic reasons, to be with their mates but the most incentive of all was that Britain needed help. Although these facts are all true one of the most important was that they would have the honour of representing their country with honour and pride which is the true...show more content... On the 21st of April the Soldiers were given the nod to go ahead with the landing by Sir Ian Hamilton who wrote an inspiring letter that probably gave the troops a great boost of confidence. They landed on the 25th of April at Anzac Cove with no fear just a killer instinct and a do or die attitude which had to be adopted for its the only way that a war can be fought . These characteristics were underlined at the Nek, better known as The Battle of the Ridges. The Anzacs charged at the Turks with Bayonets in hope to gain control of the heights as this would be one of the only hopes of victory. Although there was very little gained out of the plan the Movie "Gallipoli" shows the bravery and the fight of the troops even when they were to meet almost certain doom they still fought on or did their best for the Anzacs and for their country. The Anzacs who were under adversity in extremely hot summer conditions and many troops were suffering from diseases. There was also a lack of suitable facilities to store the food and a lot of it got spoiled, which caused illness among the troops. They still managed to keep their mateship and camaraderie that is fitting of the Anzac Legend. There was a great admiration for the Intelligence of the Australians and their initiative. These tactics were flawless for example they used to put a hat on a stick to draw Turkish fire. They made bombs from old tin cans, nails, shrapnel and other metal.

  • 7. Gallipoli Research Paper The landing at Gallipoli on 25 April 1915 is often considered the most important event of the Gallipoli campaign of the First World War. Consequently, events and experiences that deserve equal or greater recognition are disregarded. The battle of Lone Pine was a fine display of courage. The attack was planned to draw the attention of the Turkish and support another attack attempting to break the stalemate in August. Many soldiers of different nationalities arrived in early August to support the cause (McAnulty, 4– 5 August, 1915). The attack commenced on August 6 when the Allied soldiers bombarded Turkish lines for one hour, resulting in fierce hand–to–hand fighting. Soldiers from both sides were seen lying dead on the ground, many in close...show more content...

Essay On Battle Of Gallipoli The Battle of Gallipoli David Cumo Ms. Beck Honors World Cultures Period 7 19 May 2017 The Battle of Gallipoli, also referred to as The Gallipoli Campaign of 1915–16 or the Dardanelles Campaign, was a decisive battle in World War One during which Allied Powers attempted to take control over the sea route between Europe and Russia. Overall, the battle is largely considered a failure. There were many forces that acted against the Allies during the campaign, main causes of the loss were the repelling of the initial naval attack, the failure of the invasion of the Gallipoli Peninsula by the British, French, and ANZAC (Australian and New Zealand Army Corps), and the high level of resistance from the Turks, and an extreme lack in planning...show more content... A stray mine sunk the French battleship Bouvet with its' six hundred sailors still on board. Another French battleship, Inflexible, struck a mine close to where Bouvet had sunk earlier. Inflexible, however, did not sink. It stayed afloat and eventually became beached. Due to the inexperience of the men sailing the minesweepers, the constant bombardment of Ottoman artillery proved to be too much for them. Many retreated and abandoned their ships, leaving many mines still intact. Seventeen of the Allied ships were damaged or sunk by the time the battle had ended. The Allies then began to plan a ground invasion of the Dardanelles and sent two submarines into the straits. Unfortunately, they too were lost to mines. Luckily, the British submarine HMS B11 managed to enter into the strait unharmed and on December 13, 1959. It sunk the Ottoman Battleship, MesГ»diye. It was docked at Sari Sighlar Bay and was being used as a floating fortress by the Ottomans. The Allies also managed to use their submarines to overpower the Ottomans in the Sea of Marmara. They were able to sink large numbers of Ottoman ships, including, one battleship, one destroyer, five gunboats, eleven troop transports, forty–four supply ships, and 148 sailing vessels between April and December, 1915, while only losing eight submarines themselves. This forced the Ottomans to abandon the Sea of Marmara as a trade route and was Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 9. Essay On Gallipoli Are the outcomes of war determined by the commanding officers, or other outside factors? Aging generals and poor communication were large factors at Gallipoli and may have been the difference between victory and defeat in many cases. Another component of the war at the peninsula was the hostile terrain. Nasty cliffs and plants were the least of the worries for soldiers at the Gallipoli peninsula. Traditional, archaic generals, inefficient methods of dealing with the wounded, and ruthless terrain would spell disaster for British, French, and Australian troops at the invasion of Gallipoli. With generals retired since the 1880's, command was very aged and unprepared for World War One in 1915. The average age for officers at Gallipoli was well...show more content... Military technology and schooling are constantly evolving and improving, so unfit leadership is a thing of the past. Battle planning takes exponentially longer than it did in World War I, and plans are reviewed by a panel of experts for possible outcomes and strategies, not written up by a single person. With the invention of drones, and the evolution of globalization, unscouted areas of land are growing smaller every day. Drones allow us to see the enemy and the land they are inhabiting from thousands of miles away, in a bunker where the pilot is not at risk of danger. Soldiers and officers are always informed of the terrain they are being deployed into, so there are no surprises on the battlefield. I believe that the commanding officers do not determine the outcomes of war. They do deliver the orders and decide the actions of the troops, but they alone can not decide the results of battle. Had there been better intelligence of the land, more advanced communication, and fewer inexperienced doctors, the battle for Gallipoli and WWI as a whole could have been very different, without the needless sacrifice of life from both Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 10. Essay on The Failures of Gallipoli The Failures of Gallipoli The objectives of the campaign were to capture Gallipoli, and then invade Constantinople. This would knock Turkey out of the war and encourage Turkey's neighbours to join on the allied side. Then they would invade Austria through the South and leave Germany isolated and unable to continue the war. The allies failed these objectives due to many reasons. The first reason for failure was due to lack of training and training in the wrong terrain. The allied and ANZAC troops were trained in the desert for a short period while Gallipoli was rocky with hills and trenches. They were not trained for landings on enemy beaches and therefore a lot of soldiers died. This shows...show more content... The initial attack and the second attack had four months difference giving the Turks time to get ready for the next attack. There were also rough seas a lot of the time and it was difficult to wait for the right weather due to the decrease of morale in the soldiers. This gave the Turks to restore order and get ready. This is also a sign of bad planning because they should have planned everything out much better and then attacked without pauses so that the Turks didn't have a chance to rearm and train their men etc. Turkish soldiers were "ordered to die" by their superiors and not to fight or retreat. An other big problem was the lack of water. There was no way to get desalinated water to the soldiers and therefore it was hard for them to drink water and therefore couldn't fight very well. This also is a sign of bad planning leading to inadequate supplies because they should have seen that it would be hard to get water to the troops and therefore thought about how to get it to them easily so they don't die of thirst. If they thought about this maybe less troops would have died and therefore maybe there would not have been a lack of troops. Dust and dirt also made life very Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 11. How Important Was The Battle Of Gallipoli How significant was the Battle of Gallipoli? The Battle of Gallipoli was a battle that had great significance in World War One. The Battle of Gallipoli was a struggle that took place in World War One when British and Anzac forces tried to take a series of straits called the Dardanelles. The main purpose of this attack was to break through the straits, Eliminate The Ottoman Empire from the war, and get troops and supplies to the Eastern Front where Russia had been fighting Germany all by themselves. The first Allied troops to set foot at Gallipoli after a naval attack failure arrived on April 25, 1915. These troops will be the Allied side of the uphill battle for about 11 months, starting from the first bombardment. As the Battle of...show more content... Only a select group of countries found any significance in it. Gallipoli is mainly celebrated in a small number of countries. one of said countries is Turkey. Formerly part of the Ottoman Empire, Turkey celebrates the protecting of their land and home every year. The Ottoman Empire was seen as a country that wasn't going to last long in terms of a war previous to the invasion of Gallipoli. Allied forces were not expecting to be there for a whole ten to eleven months against small numbers of Turkish troops. However, Even though Turkish forces were few, they had the advantage of terrain on their side. The Allied forces had inaccurate maps and charts that hadn't shown how rugged the terrain really was. Poor planning led to the advantage of Turkish forces in the battles to come. The beaches that Allied troops had landed on were led into narrow paths which typically had machine guns and other Turkish defenses posted in defensive positions that were able to keep Allied troops from gaining any more ground than they already had. The Turkish people celebrate the overcoming of a seemingly superior force yearly and they hold great pride for the Battle of Gallipoli. Another country to whom Gallipoli was of significance to was Australia. Australia was part of the Anzac forces in cooperation with Great Britain at Gallipoli. Australia had made up most of the forces along with New Zealand. Australia hadn't really been recognized before Gallipoli was launched in April of 1915. Get more content on HelpWriting.net

  • 15. Gallipoli Movie Review Essay The film Gallipoli takes place during World War I's Gallipoli campaign in 1915. The two main characters in the film are Archy and Frank. Archy and Frank are from Western Australia and they both enlist to fight in Gallipoli. Archy is an extremely fast runner who meets Frank at an athletics competition. We can see from the beginning that Archy is eager to join the war. After being turned down because he was underage, he goes to Perth, anxious for someone to accept him into the light horsemen. Frank, however, is skeptical about Australians wanting to join the war. He tells Archy that it's "not our war to fight". Despite this statement, Frank eventually joins up into the Infantry. The story revolves around Frank and Archy's experiences ...show more content... Archy and Frank stick together through all of the war training exercises in Egypt and they fight together on the front at Gallipoli. Another element of mate–ship is shown in the last part of the film. When the final battle of Gallipoli approaches, Archy persuades Major Barton to assign Frank as his runner because Archy knows that Frank does not have as much commitment as he does on the fighting service. Archy gets Frank a safer position and decided to sacrifice his own life for his best mate. (Gammage) Some more ideals that are glorified in the film are bravery and honor. The experiences at Gallipoli gave Australians a new identity which made them distinguishable from any other nation. At the start of the film we see that almost everyone wants to enlist in the war. Although many Australian men enlist totally naive to the dangers awaiting them, once they are in Gallipoli they fight fearlessly, with the attitude that they are doing it for their country. Anyone who is studying Australian history would do well to watch this film. The film is historically accurate which means that students can use it as a direct source of information and evidence. The fact that the film is portrayed as a dramatized story makes the many aspects of Australia and its participation of World War I much easier to understand than a any text book would. (Broadbent) The film creates a feeling of empathy which Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 16. Why Was Gallipoli Important In Australia The meaning of the Anzac legend has changed overtime as it has been disputed and altered with the way people interpret the different events of World War One. This has become specifically apparent in recent years due to the 100 year anniversary of the Gallipoli landing with many debating whether Gallipoli was the most significant event in world war one. During world war one there were many battels on the western front that are if not more significant than the Gallipoli campaign, such as the battle of Hemel's that in addition to Gallipolis bravery and sacrifice there was superb Australian military planning, perfect execution and great successes. 2 The landing at Gallipoli is by far the most celebrated aspect of Australia's campaign in the First World War with many Australians even tying their national identity to the campaign though in comparison to numerous battels on the western front it was a minor failed campaign. The battel at Gallipoli lasted 8 months With January 8, 1916 marking the full retreat from the shores of the Gallipoli Peninsula in Turkey. The Gallipoli campaign failed to complete the majority of its objectives whilst sustaining heavy losses with 44,000 Allied, including more than 8700 Australians casualties. This is still less than one sixth of the casualties on the western front making Gallipoli a comparatively small battel. The reason Gallipoli is so important to many Australians according to The...show more content... n war memorial which is a highly reliable primary source written to educate, is that some saw the landing at Gallipoli to be Australia's "Baptism of fire" because though it was not Australia's first battel it was Australia's first Get more content on HelpWriting.net

  • 18. Gallipoli Campaign Essay On the 25th of April 1915, I landed at North Beach, Gallipoli. It was World War I. The Huns (Germans) had been building their navy and were challenging Britain's supremacy of the sea (Gallipoli Campaign, 2012). Britain sought to achieve control of the Dardanelles and the Bosporus straits, capture Constantinople, and open a Black Sea supply route to her ally Russia (Gallipoli Campaign, 2012). In simple terms, the Gallipoli campaign was a bloody war with Turkey over trade routes. Turkey had aligned themselves with the Ottoman Empire and barricaded the straits with mines and fortresses. In the March of 1915, the navy (British) had tried and failed to clear the straits and so on April 25th, British, French, Australian, and New Zealand troops landed along the east coast of the Gallipoli Peninsula, at North Beach, Cape Helles (British and French), and sadly, ANZAC Cove (Gallipoli Campaign, 2012)....show more content... The truth was that I joined because I wanted to¬¬ help my country (Australia) show its worth to the motherland, Britain (Early Reactions to War, 2016; the rush to enlist, 2016). I was caught in the propaganda and heroic sense of duty of it all – to fight for the fallen (The rush to enlist, 2016; Propaganda, 2016). Enlisting seemed like a good idea as I thought seeing England and Europe would be an adventure and paid jobs were hard to come by (The rush to enlist, 2016). I went to Cairo for my army infantry training because there was no room in England. I took tours of the pyramids and tombs with my fellow soldiers and we all drank heavily (Training & preparation, 2016). The army returned home many of my comrades for health and disciplinary reasons (Training & preparation, 2016). After I had finished my training, I boarded a ship and began the journey from Cairo to the coast of Gallipoli, to join my comrades already fighting on the front Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 19. Gallipoli Research Paper Gallipoli; one of the great campaigns of World War 1, that took place between the Ottomans and the ANZAC'S in the Gallipoli peninsula of the Ottoman Empire (Modern Day Turkey) between April 1915 and January 1916. The nations who took part in the remembrance of the Gallipoli Campaign (Australia and New Zealand) consider the expedition fondly with pride, and not taking into account that it was a failure. In addition; the ANZAC'S experienced a holocaust on a massive scale, which caused an influx of casualties, meaning it shouldn't be remembered as a appreciable defeat. Moreover, the ANZAC'S have no antiquity originating from British origins, the ANZAC's need to provide a sense that they played major role in the war and to present the struggles which the ANZACS had to face....show more content... Reason being; it's a country which hasn't been colonised by Britain or other empires before the middle ages, being colonised for over 115 years. From my experience; the Australian education system presents Gallipoli as a big deal and a main topic during history classes, instead of colonisation of the country. ABC News even documented "This massive interest might be the result of careful marketing, by schools, publishers, the media or government agencies, but it seems that while the expression of interest might be directed, the consumption of the products seem to reflect the popular interest rather than manipulate it." Gallipoli is taken into the education system with pride, thus creating a student to have a mentality that the nations that took part in the war have an eccentric Get more content on HelpWriting.net
