Mücadele Etmek - Struggle
Allied forces landed on Gallipoli on 25 April. British (and later French) forces made the main landing at Cape Helles on the southern tip of Gallipoli, while the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC) landed midway up the peninsula. Sent 2 km north of their intended landing place, they encountered determined Ottoman forces in the rugged country above the beach (soon known as Anzac Cove). Unable to make any significant advance, the Anzacs spent the next few days desperately holding onto their small beachhead.
Today no survivors of the First World War remain alive. It is no longer possible to speak with those who lived through what people then called the Great War.
This project using a single poppy depicts one soldiers struggle in Gallipoli.
