EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the raw intensity and bravery of the 6th Manchester Regiment during the Third Battle of Krithia, part of the larger Gallipoli Campaign in the Dardanelles during World War I. The image, taken in 1915, depicts the regiment advancing through rugged terrain towards the Turkish defensive lines, with the ominous backdrop of smoke and explosions from the ongoing battle. The soldiers, determined and focused, carry their rifles and equipment, some with fixed bayonets, as they make their way towards the enemy. The historical significance of this moment is palpable, as the Gallipoli Campaign marked a turning point in the war, with the Allied forces ultimately failing to capture the peninsula and suffering heavy casualties. The 6th Manchester Regiment played a crucial role in the attack, with many brave actions and sacrifices made by its members. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the heroism and sacrifice displayed by soldiers during the Great War, and the enduring impact of historical events on the world.
