What's a coupla of Aussies as a price to put your man in place.

Now really, the Aussies have a legitimate beef with Churchill and the other British commanders regarding Gallipoli. But how can you blame an opposing colonel for doing his job well in defense of his own soil?

I am not blaming Col. Mahmet Pasha at all. He was doing his job, and oportunity was too good to be true. My intention was to point how the Brits helped Kemal Pasha's promotion by deliberately sacrificing ANZAC troops.
