WW1 - Dead and wounded kit collection, W Beach, Gallipoli

WW1 - A view of "W" Beach in Gallipoli after a night of heavy battle with counter-attacking Turks. The beach parties of officers, blue jackets, the detachments of engineers, and of Naval Division reinforced the firing line. The thin khaki line seen across the land held throughout the night. In a scene of post-battle, standing troops collect abandoned kits, broken rifles and wire, the evidence of "a wonderful feat of arms"
