The Making of a Legend, The Landing at Anzac Cove by Lambert.


The Making of a Legend, The Landing at Anzac Cove by Lambert.

Landing at dawn on 25th April 1915 about 8,000 Anzacs fought their way off the narrow, stony beach. They moved upwards and inland through treacherous terrain and fierce concentrated fire from entrenched and well prepared Turkish positions. By evening they had gained some 2,000 metres and each side lost about 2,000 men. After 8 months of fighting the troops were withdrawn. Both the Allies and Turks had committed some 500,000 men each to the ill fated Dardanelles campaign. The Anzacs had lost 10,000 killed and 26,000 wounded.

 On September 9th 1915, just one month after the gallant exploit which gained him the V.C.  Captain now Major, Hansen was awarded the M.C. for a most daring reconnaissance along the coast in the neighbourhood of Suvla Bay.  Stripping him and carrying only a revolver and a blanket for disguise, he swam through the sea and scrambled over rocks, which severely cut and bruised him.  Much valuable information was, however, gained by his reconnaissance and he located a gun that was causing a great deal of damage.

  The Allies made a third great attempt to capture the heights of Achi Baba and Krithia on June 4th 1915, and after a hard struggle an advance was made of abut five hundred yards on a front of three miles, and two lines of Turkish trenches were occupied.  On June 5th the Turks made a furious assault on the British, and a detachment of a battalion, whose officers had fallen, broke for a moment and began to retire.  Realizing the danger to the rest of the line, Second-Lieutenant George Raymond Dallas-Moor, of the 3rd Battalion The Hampshire Regiment, who was about two hundred yards away on the left, dashed back and rallied the men.  He then led them forward and recaptured the lost trench.  Lieutenant Dallas-Moor only joined the army in October of 1914, but his bravery and presence of mind on this occasion saved a dangerous situation.  He was awarded the V.C.
