EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the scene at the Allied camp at Sed Dul-Bahr during the Gallipoli Campaign of World War I in July 1915. The camp, located in the Dardanelles region of modern-day Turkey, was a crucial base for the Allied forces, including the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC), as they attempted to secure a passage through the straits and break the deadlock of the stalemated war on the Western Front. The image reveals a bustling camp scene, with wagons and carts laden with supplies in the foreground. The supplies, essential for the survival and sustenance of the troops, are carefully arranged and ready for distribution. Tents, pitched in neat rows, can be seen in the background, providing shelter for the soldiers. The Ottoman Turkish forces, who fiercely defended their territory, were a formidable adversary, and the Allied forces knew that they needed to be well-equipped and well-supplied to have any chance of success. The Gallipoli Campaign was a turning point in the war, and the failure of the Allied forces to secure a victory marked a significant blow to morale. However, the campaign also saw the emergence of the ANZAC legend, with the soldiers' bravery and determination becoming a source of national pride for Australia and New Zealand. This photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of the Allied forces during this pivotal moment in world history.
