EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the bravery and determination of the Scottish Borderers during the British attack on trench J10 at Gallipoli in 1915. The First World War was a turning point in world history, and the failed attempt to seize control of the Dardanelles Straits and Constantinople from the Ottoman Empire marked a significant military setback for the Allies. The Scottish Borderers, part of the 15th (Scottish) Division, are seen here advancing through the muddy terrain towards the Turkish trenches. Their faces are etched with concentration and resolve, as they bravely face the unknown dangers that lie ahead. The photograph captures the raw emotion and intensity of the moment, with the soldiers' expressions reflecting the mixture of fear, determination, and camaraderie that defined the experiences of soldiers on the front lines. The attack on J10 took place on August 7, 1915, during the Second Battle of Krithia Vineyard. Despite initial successes, the attack was ultimately unsuccessful, and the Scottish Borderers suffered heavy losses. The failure of the Gallipoli campaign had far-reaching consequences, leading to the eventual withdrawal of Allied forces from the peninsula in January 1916. This powerful image serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the Scottish Borderers and other soldiers during the First World War. It offers a glimpse into the harsh realities of trench warfare and the unyielding courage and resilience of those who fought in the trenches of Gallipoli.
