Overall rating: (N/A)
|
Maojr Barton:
What your telling me sir and correct me if I am wrong, is that the infantry attack on Lone Pine, and our Light Horse attack on the Nek are diversions.
Col.
Robinson:
Oh not just diversions Major, vital important diversions. Tonight, 25,000 British troops will land here at Sulva Bay. Our attacks are to draw the Truks down on us so the British can get ashore. Sorry I did not tell you that before, secrecy is vital.
Major Barton:
But sir, the Nek is a fortress.
Protected by at least five mcahine guns at point-blank range.
Col. Robinson:
Yeah, we've considered that Barton. We're gonna hit their trenhces with the heaviest barrage of the campaign just before your boys go over the top.
Artillery Officer:
By the time we've finished, there won't be a Turk wtihin miles.
Col. Robinson:
The Turks can keep us pinned down at ANZAC froever. This new British lanidng is our only hope. We must do what we can to make it succeed. Because of it does succeed, we'll have Constantinople with a week, and knock Tukrey out of the war.
