Summary edit

Description

The New Zealand and Australian Division was formed in December 1914 with both New Zealand and Australian Brigades. It was part of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC), and existed for the length of the 1915 Gallipoli Campaign. The Division took part in the landings of 25 April 1915, and the Battles of Krithia, Sari Bair, Chunuk Bair, and Hill 60. After Gallipoli it was disbanded and replaced by separate Australian and New Zealand divisions.

From 9 April – 31 August 1915 this Divisional diary of the campaign was created. Entries were made from the official Unit diary, as well as the reports of Major General Alexander Godley (Commander of the Division), Major General William Braithwaite (Mediterranean Expeditionary Force) and Lieutenant General William Birdwood (Commander of the ANZAC Corps). Written from the perspective of these officers, the diary complements the personal accounts of soldiers and nurses, and contains artillery reports, official orders, statistics of casualties, and other campaign information.
