People often forget that at Gallipoli the nation with significantly the highest casualties for the Allies was the UK not the Anzacs with the Lancashire Fusiliers being involved in by far the heaviest fighting of the whole campaign the main thing is for the Australia this was thier primary war effort at the moment so it counted for a very high percentage of thier total war fighting ability for the UK it didn't as they simply had more people committed on multiple operations the Gallipoli figures for the Allies are as it can be clearly shown the UK casualties were higher than all the other Allies groups combined. And as bad as the Gallipoli Campaign was its numbers are small compared to the main UK battles like Somme of any of the Battles of Ypres etc
