Sincere thanks to Sinan - a wonderful guide & historian who was able to explain my grandfather’s WW1 AIF 14th Battalion battle at Hill 971 Gallipoli.
We actually walked Hill 971 as well as Shrapnel Gully in full.
Sinan - An exceptional military historian, anthropologist and classical civilization lecturer gave us an appreciation of Turkey with WW1 insights into the strategies & different battles from both Aus, Brit & Turkish viewpoints.
More importantly Sinan really looked after us oldies. Sinan guided us thoughtfully around the steep sloped memorials, tree roots, slippery sandy slopes as well as offering direct assistance where we needed it.
