AE2 “The Silent Anzac”

Here is a newspaper article about this Australian submarine, which became the first allied vessel to pierce the Turkish defences of the Dardanelles and make it to the Sea of Marmara.

The AE2 managed to torpedo a Turkish cruiser and scared off a battleship that had been shelling the Gallipoli anchorages.

It may have pierced the Turkish defenses but they didn't get far, Turkey still sunk the English, Aussies and newzelanders into the ocean.

God bless our German allies for supplying us with great heavy weapons! siegheil
