Sir Edward Grey.

I dont want to insult his memory. I dont want to insult his family, reputation and fame. But I want to tell you an unkown story about a war hero. A hero of wars. A hero who fought at both sides. On the British and Turkish sides during the Gallipoli fights. A hero who fought later againts Greeks during the years 1919-22. A hero who charged againts the Greeks with the 5th Turkish Cavalry AC on the great attack of Augus 26th 1922.

General of the Army Fahrettin Altay tells about "Sir Edward Grey" in his book. "Canakkale Hatıraları" (Gallipoli Memories)

"One day my orderly soldier brought an English dog who lost his master and came to our positions. I cared it. he got used to me. I gave it the name "Grey" while he was coming from British side. An American journalist came to visit the front and interviwed me. As he saw Grey by my side, he tapped its head and asked his name.

"Grey"

I told the story. he laughted and said http://gmic.co.uk/uploads/monthly_02_2010/post-2038-126540017814.jpg"I didnt knew that you admired Sir Edward Grey?"

Grey lived with me until its dead. He was with me when we entered Izmir on Sept. 9th 1922"

A Turkish Infantry Company at Gallipoli with pet dogs and deers. It is their last photo before they all died at Gallipoli. The soldiers were all from the region Izmir to Gallipoli battle field commanded by Hasan Fehmi. Hasan Fehmi is the officer 5th from the right. All of them KIA at Gallipoli. Only Hasan Fehmi was saved wounded. He lived only 9 years after Gallipoli. Every year on the anniversary of that fatal day he held a prayer at mosque for the souls of his comrades. Hasan Fehmi is grandfather of Turkish painter Korkut Uluğ.
