Historical reference
The Dardanelles operation (Battle of Gallipoli; Battle of Canakkale; Turkish Çanakkale Savaşı; English Gallipoli Campaign) was a large-scale military operation that lasted from February 19, 1915 to January 9, 1916 and was deployed during the First World War at the initiative of Winston Churchill by the Entente countries, mainly The British Empire, with the aim of capturing Constantinople, withdrawing Turkey from the war and opening the sea route to RussiaOn February 19, 1915, the Anglo-French fleet (6 battleships, 1 battle cruiser) began shelling the Ottoman forts, but the allies could not cause any significant damage to the Turkish defenses.
On February 25, the Allies suppressed some Turkish coastal batteries and began sweeping mines in the strait. 3 ships of the line followed the minesweepers. However, Turkish batteries soon opened fire on them, as a result of which the British and French had to withdraw.
A general attack on the Dardanelles was scheduled for 18 March. Cardin was replaced by another British admiral, De Robeck. The allies received reinforcements and now brought down all the ships in the theater in 3 divisions. However, the Turkish command also fortified the forts and increased the number of mines in the strait.
Результати перекладуPrior to the start of the war, Paris had over 10,000 taxis. However with the onset of World War I, only 3,000 taxis were still in service in Paris by September 1914; typically driven by chauffeurs aged 55 to 65. Many of these taxis were Renault Type-AGs, owned by the G7 taxi company; and as a result, gained the attention of the public for its role in transporting soldiers to the First Battle of the Marne from 6 September to 8 September . During the battle, the French Army's 62nd Division arrived at a railway station outside Paris, a significant distance away from the main battle. The French Army estimated it needed approximately 1,200 taxis to transport the 6,000 man division to the battle, resulting in the National Gendarmerie searching for taxis throughout Paris, and the village of Gagny. [2] On 6 September 1914, General Gallieni gathered about six hundred taxicabs at Les Invalides in central Paris to carry soldiers to the front at Nanteuil-le-Haudouin, fifty kilometers away. In the night of 6-7, two groups set off: the first, comprising 350 vehicles, departed at 10 PM, and another of 250 an hour later.
