the men had put their lives at risk leaving familys for us I'll tell you what happened at ANZAC cove. Death, bravery, mateship, the beginning of a legend, still fighting when you were scared and being forced to fight by the British in places that they could not possibly win! They were treated like pawns to a Chess set. They were PEOPLE with FAMILIES who loved them. They didn't die for "you" (I'm guessing you're a pom) they died for Australia and New Zealand. That's who they were fighting for.
The actual time of the very first landing at Anzac Cove is believed to have been at 4:28 am on 25 April 1915. The first groups of men set off from the ships from 3:30am onwards. Each tow, or wave of men, took between 30 and 45 minutes to reach the shore.
Troops continued to arrive for many more months, until the ANZACs were withdrawn eight months later.
One Aussie Digger invented a drip rifle, where water would drip into a bucket and over a small period of time, would make it heavy enough to full the trigger of the rifle, making the opposing side think they were still defending the front line when in fact, they were retreating.
The term ANZAC was used for Australian soldiers during WW1 (there were also some NZ but not many and all were under Australian command). Probably the most notable fighting was Gallipoli and other major campaigns including Tobruk and Beersheba.
The first landing of Australian troops at what later became known as Anzac Cove was on 25 April 1915. They continued to land for several more months after that, as it was eight months before the ANZAC forces withdrew.
ANZAC Day commemorates the landing of the troops at Gallipoli on the Turkish Aegean coast, on 25 April 1915.
Due to a navigational error, the ANZACs came ashore about a mile north of the intended landing point. Instead of facing the expected beach and gentle slope they found themselves at the base of steep cliffs, and completely vulnerable to the Turkish defenders. Of the 1500 men who waded ashore that first day, 755 remained in active service at the end of the day, with the remainder killed or wounded. Advance was impossible. After eight months of stalemate, the Allies withdrew from the peninsula, leaving about 8700 dead amongst the troops.

Some of the ANZACs were just young lads who were desperate to fight for their country. The youngest known ANZAC was 16, but there are unofficial reports there might have been boys as young as 14 who faked their age. There would have been soldiers in the twenties, thirties and forties.
