EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the French supply ship Cheval de Troie (Trojan Horse) moored up at Seddulbahr Quay during the Dardanelles Campaign of World War I in April 1915. The Cheval de Troie, a personnel carrier and supply ship, played a crucial role in the Allied efforts to break through the Ottoman defenses and secure a sea route to Russia. The ship's temporary mooring at Seddulbahr was a vital link in the supply chain, allowing for the transfer of essential provisions, ammunition, and reinforcements to the Anzac and British forces on the Gallipoli peninsula. The image presents a serene scene, with the Cheval de Troie anchored peacefully in the water, surrounded by the calm waters of the Dardanelles. However, the historical significance of this moment is not lost on the viewer. The backdrop of the rugged cliffs and barren landscape serves as a stark reminder of the harsh conditions endured by the soldiers and sailors involved in the campaign. The image also underscores the tenuous nature of the Allied position in the region, with the Ottoman forces just a short distance away and the constant threat of attack looming. The Cheval de Troie, named after the legendary Trojan Horse, was a symbol of hope and resilience for the Allied forces during this difficult period in the war. The ship's arrival at Seddulbahr Quay represented a brief moment of relief and reinforcement, allowing the troops to press on in their efforts to secure a strategic victory in the Dardanelles. Today, this photograph stands as a testament to the bravery and determination of the soldiers and sailors who fought in this pivotal campaign of World War I.
