Summary

Description
English: The SS River Clyde beached at Cape Helles, Gallipoli, 1915. Caption reads: One of the most romantic achievements of the war was the landing on Gallipoli of the British troops from the transport River Clyde. The ship was purposely run aground in order to facilitate rapid disembarkation of the soldiers through spacious doors cut in her side. This photograph shows the River Clyde, a new "Horse of Troy", stranded on the Dardanelles shore.
