25 April 1915

Dear diary, we landed at Gallipoli and the enemies were prepared. Our men were falling like water from the sky. We called the artillery on them and moved on.Then an enemy came at me and tried to stab me! He grabbed my gun and threw it away. We fought for a while and then he cut my arm! It bloody hurt like hell! I pushed him to the ground and got my gun. I managed to shoot him in the head. Then the enemies shot a rain of bullets at us. Lots of lives were lost. 

Yours sincerely

Henry.

 Dear diary The plan was a failure, they put mines and shot at us all around. They planned for this, they are shooting at us right now… we are at no mans land right now. We are in one of the trenches. Lots of men did not make it to the trenches, I have to get out there. Oh no. They are coming. 

30 April 1915…

I got shot 3 times and somehow I am still alive. I got shot in the body and in the back and in the leg. Over 648 men were killed. We are going to artillery There base. Hopefully I will make it back home. This is no adventure.

We artillery there, base and now we are going to their base. I have to make this quick. We are going to find the enemies and finish them off.  

 32 April 1915

We finished the rest off but something was not right. I said to my mates. Then a Tank Busted the wall! And enemies flooded in. 2 enemies jumped on me and stabbed me on my arm 5 times. I pushed one of them and stabbed him in the head and the other guy tried to shoot me but he missed and shot his own teammate and then. I shot him in the head. Lots of people were dying because of the tank mini gun. I had 3 hand grenades. The tank was next to a explode then  I threw one of my grenades and a beam of light struck everybody's eyes. Next we saw the tank had been destroyed. And The enemies retreated but enemy bombers came shooting in. They dropped bombs on us and then left. Over 1000s died too many to count.

33 April

We went back to my home. Well, most of us. It has been so long I hugged my mum and dad and my girlfriend and told her about what I did. But this is not the end, it's just the beginning…..
