Fields of blood

These are fields of blood. Between 120,000 and 300,000 died on thesefields in 249 days of the campaign. According to onehttp://users.erols.com/mwhite28/battles.htm#Battles">sourcethis is 10thbloodiest battle of the 20th century, ahead of famous Normandy landingin theworld war II. At least two nations lost their hopes on these bloodyfields.

If you visit the area, you'll hear rumours where >1,000 strong foughtto death in areas as small as a football field. And if you go in spring,you will see their blood covering small steep hills here. For those whohear red corn poppies, they whisper "do not forget the Gelibolu!",yet for others they just pretty flowers.

colors are awesome

I went to Gelibolu this summer and thought to myself "This is too nice a place to be fighting" as I gazed over the dales.

 

P.S. I can see halos around the trees.
