British and others abandoned ANZACS at Gallipoli. Gallipoli total botch up by senior generals etc. Turkish chief had no concept the place Galliopoli grow to be British concept all seashores - severe high quality comfortable slopes did no longer verify that G had steep,steep slopes each-one else did no longer respond to ANZACS messages for help. The ANZACS them-selves have been unbelievably courageous and dependable. Loyalty shown by obeying rattling fool instructions of ??allies??

Australian & New Zealand Army Corp. ANZAC Day is a National day and our most important as it commorates the Aussie & Kiwi Diggers and their landing at Gallipoli, forging two young but strong Countries together forever. We celebrate our fallen in Every War on this day.

I'll star this question as I have many NZers on my contacts (eg, Dune, Historyman and Kiwi) who are far older and wiser than me and they'll be able to give you better answers.
