Millions of people died and the disaster was complicated by the circumstance that these were all men who were very young. They both went through substantial damages and this battle is also noteworthy for being among in which innumerable new and dreadful weaponries were made known by both to kill one another. Gallipoli Diary created by John Graham Gillam is some of the countless subjective accounts penned by the fighters of this blood spattered war.
