15. Capt JE Sergeant, 8th Battalion AIF

Jack Duffy has four photos of this grave in various parts of his album. This grave commemorates Capt John E Sergeant who commanded B Coy 8th Battalion AIF at the Gallipoli landing on 25 April 1915. He was killed that day leading his troops onto Pine Ridge, aged 45. He is buried in Shell Green Cemetery.

Below are the other three images of this grave in its dramatic setting.

14. Pte A McCann & Pte TE Haylock

Pte Albert McCann 436 of D Coy 8th Battalion AIF was killed in action on 17 June 1915 during heavy Turkish shelling of Steele's Post trenches. He was aged 21.

Pte Thomas E Haylock 866 of D Coy 21st Battalion AIF was killed in action on 12 October 1915.

Both men are in Shrapnel Valley Cemetery.

13. Sgt PWG Moon, 8th Battalion AIF

Sgt Phillip WG Moon 63 of A Coy 8th Battalion AIF was killed in action 19 June 1915, aged 22. He was observing Turkish lines through a loophole when an enemy sniper saw movement and with a single shot killed him. He is buried in Shrapnel Valley Cemetery.

12. Comrades of C Coy 6th Battalion AIF

Duffy's mournful caption - "Left Behind" - resonates through all the images in this site.

This group of crosses in Shrapnel Gully Cemetery is clustered around a group commemoration to, I think, C Coy of 6 Battalion, although it is not easy to discern. It records that "They Gave Their Lives for Their Country. " Behind it are three discernable crosses.

On the right is Pte J King - possibly Pte John L King 357 5th Batalion AIF KIA 27 June 1915 aged 19. This man is, however, buried at Beach cemetery. There is no obvious candidate in the records for Shrapnel Gully Cemetery.

More centrally are two men killed in action on 18 July 1915: Lt Herbert A Biggsley of 6th Battalion AIF and LCpl James T Lilburne 1569 of 5th Battalion AIF.

11. LCpl D Lees, and some early casualties

This location showing graves of some of the first Anzacs to be lost at Gallipoli has already appeared in Image 4 below, where the names are mostly recorded. Here we see a group of presumably 8th Battalion men standing at the graveside.

On the far right is a cross not in the previous photo - of LCpl David Lees 318 of B Coy 11th Battalion AIF. He was killed in action on 2 May 1915, aged 45.
