  • Notes 
    • "On the morning of 7 August the 8th, 9th and 10th Australian Light Horse made a dismounted charge across the narrow no-man's-land which had separated them and the Turks for the past twelve weeks. Most of the light horsemen did not show alarm at the task they had been set. Among many there was a nervous anticipation, for this was to be a demonstration of their worth. They were aware that the infantrymen, who had got a tenuous grip on the peninsula when they made their amphibious landing in late April, were watching to see how well these more recently arrived troops, supposedly Australia's elite, would acquit themselves. Two hundred and thirty-four men were killed, and about 140 wounded, in this short, sharp action. In the trenches, from which they had begun only minutes earlier, there was shock and chaos. Dead and wounded were thick in no-man's-land. For many death had been instantaneous. Others lay wounded and isolated, with neither the strength nor opportunity to get back."
