Printed 109 years ago today in The Tacoma Times. Image cleaned up, see the original. (Lamentably, that page also has a racist caricature on it.)

Found on the Library of Congress site. Feel free to pick a cartoon and post it yourself!

    I remember watching the 1981 movie Gallipoli – it focuses on a couple soldiers leading up to the campaign, it’s pretty depressing (as WWI movies tend to be) but pretty good.

    Cohen’s “Military Misfortunes” has a chapter on how badly the Suvla Bay landings were handled. To be fair, amphibious landings are challenging.

    Wait, I think I also read a case study on how well the final withdrawal was done. I think it was in Barton Whaley’s “Stratagem”. As I recall, they withdrew everyone and even all heavy equipment without the Ottoman soldiers noticing, leaving behind only one pack animal that refused to budge.
