Pete & Gary's Military History
Gallipoli - The Anzac Landing
Season 5
•
The Allies are going ashore at Gallipoli! In the frosty dawn of April 25, 1915, 16,000 Australian and New Zealand troops prepare to land on a hostile shore. The Turks know a landing is coming, but will their defences be enough to drive the Anzacs into the sea?
In the second episode of a special series on the Gallipoli campaign from our sister podcast, Living History, Pete joins historian Mat McLachlan to tell the story of the landings at Anzac Cove.
Hosts: Mat McLachlan and Peter Hart
