Gallipoli Peninsula, Turkey. 26 April 1915. Plugge's Plateau, looking from across Shrapnel Valley on the second afternoon after the landing at Anzac Cove on 25 April 1915. The troops came down the path on the left and then up the near side of the valley. The ridge connecting Plugge's Plateau with Russell's Plateau was a 'knife edge'.
