Description

Beach scene where the "Anzacs" landed (Dardanelles).This postcard was sent by 622 Private Herbert Vincent Reynolds. The rear of the postcard is described as follows:
This view shows Anzac Cove after a few weeks note the large stacks of stores. The pier has been constructed by our engrs & is a fairly solid one it was constructed by the aid of an 8.2 shell used as a pile driver it is known as Watsons pier. we landed along near the point of the hill. This view was taken from the track leading to a sap over the ridge into Shrapnell (sic) Gully. My first dugout was up on the side of the hill near the right of the view where the dot of ink is the hospital was on the beach just below the notice board but later on it was shifted along to the middle of the stores. This set of views was taken by a NZ chap & the other 4 are views that I am not familiar with being taken from the left flank while I was only working on the right flank.
