Episode 08 30th April: The Firing Line

Letters of Gallipoli

Before dawn on the 25th of April 1915, 4000 Australian soldiers rowed towards the shores of Gallipoli. By nightfall, 600 men had lost their lives. Their stories should never be forgotten. Every day, you can listen to a new spoken-word letter that was written 100 years ago, to the day. You’ll be right there in the trenches as the letters were written. Put in headphones and carry their stories with you. Lest we forget.
