As it is the anniversary of the war at Dardanelles, this set of images were taken at an exhibition in Konya and uploaded to commemorate all those who lost their lives in 1915-16. The lead image is a picture of British cartridges, V1 is a photograph of the Turkish schoolboys parading before they were sent to the front lines to die. V2 shows two examples of bullets met in the air. It is reported that 6000 bullets fell in a square meter during the battles. V3 is a picture of two of the British badges. V4 shows the rings that were made from the barrels of the British rifles in depots and presented as gifts to those girls who volunteered to help wounded soldiers in the hospitals, because the state lacked finance to pay them.
Thank you for seeing and thank you all for your clicks and kind comments on my yesterday's image.
