Histórias da Grande Guerra II

* Discovery Channel:

Observando A História: Gallipoli, 25-11-2006 15:00 - Para Churchill, o Dia D foi um dos maiores triunfos da II Guerra Mundial. Mas quase 30 anos antes, na península de Gallipoli, teve lugar outro Dia D, menos conhecido, mas que ia acabando com a sua carreira política. A arqueologia submarina revela agora como os acontecimentos de 1915 se tornaram numa vergonha e numa carnificina.

* No Wikipedia: The campaign was largely successful for the Turks and the Germans and a catastrophe for Russia which eventually would lead to civil war partly due to this unsuccessful campaign.(...) Winston Churchill and the First Sea Lord John Fisher both resigned as a result of the defeat, amid mutual recriminations.
