Both side fought bravely and over 500000 people were killed during the war officially.
We ANZACS and you 'Johnny Turk's" had, and still have, the greatest respect for each other as soldiers. Loads of stories of good will in the trenches at ANZAC cove. But lets not be mistaken, when the war was raging it was totally ruthless..... Respect. Have you seen the Australian movie Galipolli by George Miller?
