Trench Warfare War Effort

Gallipoli truly demonstrated the view points of
Australians and the effects the war had on them. A
deceiving perception of the war was emphasized,
forgetting the warnings and traumas which were so
evident by the end of the movie. Innocence was
lost before young boys even had a chance to really

nationalism encouraged the war effort. Much could
have been prevented, yet the naivete of the elders
and youth alike kept the inexperienced going on
for more. Mi...
