Ottoman casualties The Nek 7 August 1915

[gilly100]

Hello All

I am trying to get some reference to Turkish casualties as a result of the bombardment by artillery and Royal Navy and machine guns prior to charge and any casualties sustained as a whole including the charge by 8th and 10th Light Horse. Here in Bali I have no reference material from the Turkish side in relation to this, and wish to do so. If anyone can quote from an official history or book of respected value, can they please let me know. I only wish to add a small quote and some words to give some balance to the question of casualties from the above. We all know the casualties for the chargers. This will be added to the new and upcoming history on the 10th Light Horse Regt.

Many thanks in advance

Thanks Vince, have seen it and as the 18th Regt were there all adds up to a very low casualty rate compared to those charging. Thanks for your help.

Hi Ian,

Could you send me an E-mail. Forwarded one to you last night but it has bounced back as a delivery failure.

Hopefully I will be able to establish a link by a return message to your mail.
