Q.   Did the Anzacs fight anywhere else other than Anzac Cove?
A.   On 5 May, the 2nd Australian Infantry Brigade (Victoria) and the New Zealand Infantry Brigade were withdrawn from Anzac and transported by sea to Cape Helles at the southern end of the peninsula to reinforce the British units there. The Anzacs took part in the Second Battle of Krithia on 8 May 1915 and suffered heavy casualties. The surviving ANZAC troops were withdrawn from Helles and returned to Anzac on the night of 16/17 May 1915.
