  • The August Offensive
    2025/04/24
    Hamilton had a plan and the plan was good. Land 20,000 troops on a new, relatively undefended beach and rush inland while Turkish forces are diverted by ANZAC attacks at Lone Pine, The Nek and Chunuk Bair. Perhaps Hamilton didn't realise the 20,000 men at Suvla were poorly trained, poorly equiped and in Frederick Stopford poorly led. In a campaign full of missed opportunities Suvla is the crowning failure. This is contracted by the ANZACS who fought magnificently.
