Description
Stores being unloaded from a supply boat onto barges in the shelter of the British transport ship River Clyde, a converted collier (background). After taking part in the landing at Anzac Cove, the River Clyde was run aground at Cape Helles, close to the entrance of the Dardanelles, to enable Allied troops to land using a series of barges and pontoons. There followed an attack on Turkish positions on the tip of the Gallipoli Peninsula.
