EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant image captures the moment of reconciliation between Captain Davidson of the HMS Cornwallis, the last ship to leave Suvla Bay during the Gallipoli evacuation in 1916, and General Sir Julian Byng, the commander of Suvla. The evacuation, also known as the Dardanelles withdrawal, was a significant turning point in the First World War, marking the end of the Allied attempt to seize control of the Dardanelles and Constantinople from the Ottoman Empire. Captured in this historical photograph, General Byng is seen greeting Captain Davidson on the gangway of the HMS Cornwallis. The exhaustion and determination etched on their faces tell the story of the arduous and dangerous mission that had just taken place. The evacuation, which began on December 19, 1915, and continued until January 9, 1916, saw the withdrawal of over 80,000 Allied troops from the Gallipoli peninsula. The HMS Cornwallis, a transport ship, played a crucial role in the evacuation, ferrying soldiers and supplies back to Mudros Bay on the island of Lemnos. The image of Captain Davidson and General Byng serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during the Gallipoli campaign and the importance of military leadership during times of war. The Gallipoli campaign, which lasted from April 1915 to January 1916, resulted in over 130,000 casualties for the Allied forces and 86,000 for the Ottoman Empire. The failure of the campaign led to significant changes in military strategy and the eventual victory of the Allies in the First World War. This photograph, taken in 1916, is a testament to the bravery and determination of the soldiers and commanders involved in the Gallipoli evacuation and the importance of their contributions to the history of the world.
