“We moved up to a fresh position nearer the firing line at dawn. Canterbury men who had been fighting with the Australians since the landing are still coming and rejoining their units. Shortly after 10 a.m. the Turks attempted to retake our position left of Walker’s Ridge. They made a fierce attack on our front line, but we pushed up reinforcements and repulsed them, with heavy losses. Our machine guns did terrible slaughter.”
[Chamberlain p11]
