| |
| On the morning of the 28 June 1914 two pistol shots fired in a Sarajevo |
| street would plunge the world into the most destructive war it had ever |
| known as a spider's web of alliances set Great Power against Great Power. |
| |
| In the far corners of the British Empire, men flocked to the flag, |
| ready to do their bit in the European war. For the blokes of the |
| Australian and New Zealand Army Corps, though, it wasn't France they |
| ended up in, it was a place called Gallipoli and a particular spot |
| always mentioned when tales of bravery are told... |
| |
| Introduction |
| |
| As a tribute to those who served during the years 1914-1918 - on the |
| Home Front or at Front Line - Commando has produced a series of stories |
| of characters caught up in the tumult of the First World War. None of |
| them are real characters but we'd like to think that the experiences |
| they have will not be a million miles from what actually happened to so |
| many. |
| |
| Last month the Allied forces managed, just, to hold the line against |
| the might of the Kaiser's armies. Seeing stalemate settling over the |
| Western Front, Allied High Command decided on a bold gamble to break |
| the deadlock by attacking half a continent away from France. The |
| battles that followed made heroes of many but at a terrible cost. |
| |
| I hope you enjoy this and the other stories in the series as much as we |
| have. |
| |
| Calum Laird, Commando Editor |
| |
| The series continues in four weeks with Attack In Artois, Commando No 4703 |
