Anniversary Anzac Anzacs Australian Celebration Corps Dardanelles Gallipoli Landing Marching Parliament Peninsula Zealand
EDITORS COMMENTS
"This evocative photograph captures the spirit of commemoration and unity during the Anniversary Celebration of the First Landing of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC) in Parliament Square, London, on April 25, 1916. The date marks the anniversary of the first major military action mounted by the ANZAC troops during World War I at Gallipoli, Turkey, in the Dardanelles campaign. The image shows a large crowd gathered in Parliament Square, with soldiers from the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps leading a march in honor of their fallen comrades. The troops, dressed in their military uniforms, proudly carry their flags and banners, reflecting the strong sense of national pride and camaraderie among the ANZAC soldiers and their supporters in London. The anniversary celebration was a significant event in the history of the ANZAC forces and their contributions to the war effort. The Gallipoli campaign, which lasted from April to December 1915, was a costly and unsuccessful military operation for the Allied forces, resulting in heavy casualties and losses. However, the bravery and determination displayed by the ANZAC troops during the campaign became a symbol of Australian and New Zealand national identity and is commemorated each year on ANZAC Day. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the ANZAC soldiers during World War I and the enduring legacy of their courage and resilience. It also highlights the importance of remembrance and the role of community and solidarity in healing the wounds of war." By Illustrated London News Ltd/Mary Evans from Mary Evans Prints Online.
