How many Anzacs were executed in WW1?

Frequently asked questions - FAQ 201 -250
Five (5), all New Zealanders. Australia had 170 men convicted of offences that could lead to execution but as they were all volunteers the Governor-General refused to sign the orders. 1 Aussie was convicted of murder of a British civilian, in a civil court and executed.

Do you have all the statistics on WW1?

Frequently Asked Questions, 251 to 300
Statistics are notoriously hard to come by in a way that does not start more arguments than they solve. ALL statistics are, at best, guesstimates in many cases. Also, different sets of stats start from different positions. However, I believe these to be as accurate as can be obtained but I make no guarantees.

When did Diggers have a bath in WW1?

Frequently Asked Questions, 251 to 300
On Gallipoli they bathed in the ocean. In France and Flanders, although Divisional baths (with shared water) were available in the rear lines, with facilities for bathing and cleaning of clothes, the goal was only for a bath every 10 days and even these infrequent baths were not always possible. It must be remembered that the significance of lice, as the vector of trench fever, was unknown during the war, and cleanliness was not a priority in the trenches.

What was the Armistice between the Anzacs and Turks?

ANZAC officers died at Gallipoli: Frequently Asked Questions
There were actually two armistices. After the disastrous Turkish attempt to drive the Anzacs into the sea on May 19th, there were literally thousands of Turkish dead lying in No Man's land. In some places their bodies were piled a metre high. On the 20th, an informal armistice was arranged on a local basis to allow the Turkish wounded to be recovered, but it was short-lived as misunderstandings occurred.

I have books that say the Anzacs landed at Gaba Tepe. Why do you say otherwise?

Frequently Asked Questions, 251 to 300
Many books and accounts written at the time and just after refer to the landings at Gaba Tepe (Kabatepe). That is where the Anzacs were supposed to land. That's what the orders said. That is what the troops believed, sometimes for years after the war. In some cases that is what citations for medals said. However, it never happened. It is just another indication of the poor planning and the confusion that bugged the Gallipoli Campaign from the start.

Why were the Anzacs landed at the wrong place?

Frequently asked questions - FAQ 201 -250
While it is both well known and true that the original landings at what we now call Anzac Cove were over a mile north of where they were supposed to be nobody knows for sure how or why it happened. The most common theory is that a strong current pushed the boats north. Remember that the landing boats were under the control of Royal Navy Midshipmen as young as 14. However that theory may well be incorrect. for details

What were the New Zealand Regimental Numbers of WW1?

Frequently Asked Questions, 251 to 300
Service numbers and service person's name might be found on a service persons headstone, death notice in newspaper or on the reverse side of the 1914-1915 Star. A soldier enlisted 17 August 1914 and was at Gallipoli in the NZ Army Medical Corps and his service number was 3/133A. The Army sometimes doubled up on service numbers, so instead of giving out new ones they added the A.

Why was Germany so keen to have WW2 after the horrors of WW1?

Frequently Asked Questions, 251 to 300
There were several reasons. Reaction to the Great Depression which hit Germany hard, resentment at the huge costs involved with reparations payments forced on Germany by the Allies were two of them. Hitler's megalomania helped as well. One less often recognised component of the German national psyche was the fact that Germany escaped WW1. Yes, she lost hundreds of thousands killed and even more wounded but the war was fought in France and Belgium.

Did soldiers of WW1 believe that it was "the war to end all wars"?

Frequently Asked Questions, 251 to 300
No. That is a fallacy that started well after the war. H G Wells wrote a book in 1914 called "The war that will end war". It is one of his lesser works and apart from the name is almost forgotten. Wells soon turned his attention to inflammatory and often contradictory politics.

Did soldiers of WW1 believe that it was all a bit of a lark and an adventure?

Frequently Asked Questions, 251 to 300
No. Another fallacy. It is possible (even probable) that the first blokes to join the AIF did so with little understanding of what was to follow and did so with a false impression of quick victory and glory for all. However it is impossible to believe that the later recruits, who having read the casualty lists from Gallipoli, Fromelles and other early battles could have been under any mis-apprehension about the serious nature of the task. They knew what the difficulties were, and the risks.

How did soldiers get their numbers in WW1?

Frequently asked questions - FAQ 51 - 100
The numbering system during World War I was a fairly complex system. Light Horse Regiments and Infantry Battalions had their own numbering system which differed to that used by the other Arms and Services. As there were fourteen Light Horse Regiments and sixty odd Infantry Battalions it was quite possible, and in fact happened, for eighty or ninety soldiers to have the same number, particularly when one takes into account the Artillery, Engineer, Medical Services etc.

How should trills be executed?

Larry Krantz Flute Pages - FLUTE FAQ
One can find isolated instances of trills to be started on the main note before 1800, and occasional illustrations of such, but I never start a trill on the main note on music before 1828 myself. That was the year J. J. Hummel proposed main note starts for trills in his piano method (he makes it clear that this was an innovation, and that he was only talking about trills on the piano).

I've heard the Anzacs went ashore at Anzac Cove without ammunition. True or false?

Frequently asked questions - FAQ 201 -250
Totally false. Each man carried 200 rounds. In the normal Army tradition the rifles were not loaded while the landing was taking place and the troops had been told not to indulge in rifle fire until dawn. Both of those practices make sense. The first prevents accidental discharge while clambering over the side of a boat into a pinnace and the second because firing blind at night time reveals your position without damaging the enemy.
