2  This is one of the propaganda posters advertising Gallipoli to the young Aussie men in the early 1900's, as WWI began.  We chose this poster as it is directly involved to the ANZAC's who were enlisting and fighting in the Gallipoli campaign. Intro

3  ANZAC soldier (young male) in the centre making the body gesture that he is calling out for help.  Standing larger than life in between the Dardanelles.  Propaganda text saying 'Enlist Now' in big bold font at the bottom.  A call from a soldier in the Dardanelles, "Coo- ee- won't you come?"
