Seven Australians were awarded the Victoria Cross for actions in the Battle of Lone Pine.
The Australians gained vital ground, although the overall Gallipoli campaign proved unsuccessful. The main Turkish trench was taken within 20 minutes but over the following four days of hand-to-hand fighting more than 2,000 Australians were killed along with an estimated 7,000 Turks. On August 6, 1915, the 1st Brigade AIF (Australian Imperial Force) launched a diversionary offensive at Lone Pine ridge. It was even the subject of a popular wartime song, The Trail of the Lonesome Pine.
Soldiers used it as a reference point and the area became known as Lone Pine. Turkish troops had felled the area to fortify their trenches and the single pine stood out on the horizon.
When Australian troops arrived at the Gallipoli Peninsula in April 1915, there was a ridge on which a solitary pine stood. It truly was a lonesome pine, standing isolated in an empty paddock at the foot of Mount Ainslie.įrom its tiny beginnings it grew into a living memorial of the Anzac campaign and its significance continues to grow today.
