ATATÜRK

Words of Atatürk
at the Anzac Cove commemorating the loss of thousands of Turkish and Anzac soldiers in Gallipoli


Those heroes that shed their blood and lost their lives… you are now lying in the soil of a friendly country. Therefore rest in peace. There is no difference between the Johnnies and the Mehmets where they lie side by side here in this country of ours… You the mothers who sent their sons from far away countries, wipe away your tears. Your sons are now lying in our bosom and are in peace. Having lost their lives on this land they have become our sons as well.


Mustafa Kemal Atatürk
