Following the 2nd battle of Ypres, furious fighting continued on
all fronts. Casualties were high, conditions dreadful, and life
expectancy short. The only break the men had was a brief home
leave, or a few days away from the trenches. It was no comfort,
either, that many people back at home had little idea of the
suffering in the battlefields, although concern was growing as the
mounting casualty lists were published. Meanwhile, British, Indian,
French and Australian forces were landed in Gallipoli, in an
attempt to defeat the Ottoman Empire which had entered the war on
the side of the enemy. This was a disastrous venture, as the Allies
sustained appalling losses and were forced to withdraw after 8
months of bitter combat. Back in Europe, as the fighting got even
heavier, more and more men were conscripted to replace the huge
Allied losses in battles such as Loos and Verdun.
