Published in Croatia - Warfare analysis - 15 - 07 Apr 18 00:20

The 57thInfantry Regiment  (Turkish: 57 nci Alay or Elli Yedinci Alay) was a regiment of the Ottoman Army during World War I.
Established on February 1, 1915, in Tekirdağ (Rodosto) and receivedits regimental colours (sancak) on February 22, 1915. The regiments command was given to Yarbay Hüseyin Avni Bey (Arıburnu) on February 23, andthe regiment went to Çanakkale and arrived at Eceabat (Maydos) on February 25.
After relocating the Bigali Village on March 26, 1915, they trained until April
24.
On April 25 Australian and New Zealandforces carried out the landing at Anzac Cove. The 57th, being nearest,counterattacked, slowed the invasion, and were wiped out. The 57th Infantry Regiment Memorialcommemorates their sacrifice.

Mustafa Kemal issuedhis order, I am not ordering you to attack, I order you to die! In the
time which passes until we die, other troops and commanders can take our
place!.and later noted the 57th Regiment was a famous regiment
this, because it was completely wiped out.
Upon landing at AnzacCove the attackers encountered small groups of Turks who, afterdoing what they could, withdrew back over the ridges. The main Ottoman forces
in the area had been held in reserve to see just where the British Empire troopswere going to land on the peninsula. By 6.30 am a report had reached the
commander of the 19th Division ofthe Ottoman Army, Yarbay Mustafa Kemal,that an enemy force had scaled the heights at Ari Burnu. Mustafa Kemalstroops were at Bigalı,a small village off to the east beyond the main range, and he ordered his whole
division to prepare to march to the coast. He himself set off riding at the
head of the 57th Regiment. By about 9.30 am Mustafa Kemal stood at Chunuk Bair with someother officers. He could see the British warships and transports off Anzac Cove and also,coming rapidly up the hill towards him, a group of Ottoman soldiers who had
been tasked with defending Hill 261 (Battleship Hill).

1- The Battle of the Landing (25 April-3 May)
When the Australians first landed they encountered small bodies of Turks who, after doing what they could, withdrew back over the ridges. The main Turkish forces in the area had been held in reserve to see just where the British Empire troops were going to land on the peninsula. By 6.30 am a report had reached the commander of the Turkish 19th Division, Colonel Mustafa Kemal, that an enemy force had scaled the heights at Ari Burnu. Kemal’s troops were at Bigali, a small village off to the east beyond the main range, and he ordered his whole division to prepare to march to the coast. He himself set off riding at the head of the 57th Regiment. By about 9.30 am Kemal stood at Chunuk Bair with some other officers. He could see the British warships and transports off Anzac Cove and also, coming rapidly up the hill towards him, a group of Turkish soldiers who had been tasked with defending Hill 261 (Battleship Hill). Kemal spoke to them:
Why are you running away?
‘Sir, the enemy’, they said.
‘Where?’
‘Over there’, they said, pointing out hill 261.
In fact a line of skirmishers of the enemy approached hill 261 and was advancing completely unopposed. Now just consider the situation. I had left my troops, so as to give them ten minutes’ rest. The enemy had come to this hill. It meant the enemy was nearer to me than my troops were, and if the enemy came to where I was my troops would find themselves in a very difficult position. Then, I still don’t know what it was, whether a logical appreciation or an instinctive action, I do not know. I said to the men who were running away,
‘You cannot run away from the enemy.’
‘We have got no ammunition’, they said.
‘If you haven’t got any ammunition, you have your bayonets’, I said, and shouting to them, I made them fix their bayonets and lie down on the ground. At the same time I sent the orderly officer beside me off to the rear to bring up to where I was at the double those men of the infantry regiment who were advancing on Chunuk Bair who could reach it in time. When the men fixed their bayonets and lay down on the ground the enemy also lay down. The moment of time that we gained was this one ….. It was about 10.00 hours when the 57th Regiment began its attack.
During the Battle of the Landing, Kemal has been credited with one of the most famous orders issued to Turkish troops during the whole campaign –
‘I don’t order you to attack, I order you to die. In the time which passes until we die other troops and commanders can take our place’.
57 regiment attaced the enemy. They all died.

Vatanı uğruna gözünü kırpmadan canını vermenin örneğidir 57. Alay. edomda ise birkaç tane utanmaz veled bu alayın adı altında hainlik edip akılları sıra eğlenmektedirler. Tarihe saygının piç olduğunun güzel bir örneğini teşkil ederler.
