Description

Gallipoli Peninsula, Turkey. November 1915. The cemetery in Shrapnel Gully. The men paid very great attention to this and other cemeteries during the last few days of the occupation. This cemetery was near the mouth of the Gully. Main Sap can be seen running past the left hand side of it. In the distance are Deadman's Ridge and Turkish position on Chess Board, from which the Turks sniped down the valley.
