Statues Around Gallipoli

Memorial military graveyards seem also to have inspiring statues. On Gallipoli, there's no shortage of bronze beauties.

Tribute to the everyday Ottoman soldier, at the 57th infantry regiment cemetery.

Bleak death at the trenches. A large re-creation in the town of Eceabat. War hero and future first president of Turkey, Mustafa Kemal Ataturk. At Canterbury Knob.

Heavy metal. The symbol of Ottoman might and heroics, Corporal Seyit. He hauled heavy artillery shells into infamy.

Big props to the Ottomans from Governor General Lord Casey from Australia. So says the quote under the statue. Another cemetery, another ode to soldier heroics. At the 26th regiment cemetery.

Back to our hero, Corporal Seyit. If you need your artillery shell carried somewhere, he is your he-man.
