Today we travelled south of Anzac Cove to Cape Helles on the southern tip of the Gallipoli Peninsular. V Beach was one of the key landing beaches for the British and many of the men buried here were killed on the beach on 25 April 1915 in a similar way to the Anzacs - Turkish forces firing down from the clifftops. The Helles Memorial stands on the very end of the peninsular. It is the Commonwealth memorial honouring 20 673 soldiers who died during all the battles at Gallipoli and were either buried at sea or have no known grave. These British, Australian and Indian servicemen's names are engraved on plaques around the memorial. Other cemeteries include the French, the Irish, the Indian and the British. Our guide told us these cemeteries are the forgotten cemeteries, rarely visited, so we felt the least we could do was walk around the graves and read they names and remember how they gave their lives in this terrible war. According to our Commonwealth War Graves Commission booklet "Among nearly 700 unidentified casualties buried at Azmak are 114 members of the Sandringham Battalion of the Norfolk Regiment, mostly employees of the Royal Estate at Sandringham, who died here on 12 August 1915." Our guide also told us that during the battle, casualties were buried on the battlefield. There was no other option. In many places we would have been walking over their bodies, now covered with grass and shrubbery, their final resting places unknown but their names engraved at one of the cemeteries nearby. While the Allied cemeteries were all built in the 1920's, Turkey waited until 1954 to lay the foundation stone of the Çanakkale Martyr's Memorial. Our guide said the Turks hadn't realised what they had achieved in defeating the Allies in that particular battle until many years later. The memorial contains the names of almost 60 000 casualties who could be identified. The Çimenlik Fortress, built in 1462 on the narrowest point on the Strait, has become a museum dedicated to narrating the process of the whole battle. It is an excellent timeline of how the naval bombardment played out.
