Show Notes
Allied commanders were prepared to lose up to 50% of their soldiers during the evacuation after the disastrous Gallipoli campaign in WWI. Instead, not a single life was lost, thanks to the “silent stunts” masterminded by Lieutenant Colonel Cyril Brudenell White.
Battlefield historian Mat McLachlan shares the story from a new book called The Gallipoli Evacuation, by Peter Hart.
