Lieutenant-Colonel Mustafa Kemal, commander of the 19th Turkish Division at Gallipoli, 1915. Kemal’s leadership of Turkish troops at Anzac during two crucial periods – the Battle of the Landing (25 April-3 May) and The Battle of Chunuk Bair (7-10 August 1915) – was of great importance. During the Battle of the Landing, Kemal has been credited with one of the most famous orders issued to Turkish troops during the whole campaign – ‘I don’t order you to attack, I order you to die. In the time which passes until we die other troops and commanders can take our place’
