Pte Ralph Goode (Lilydale), 2^nd Field Ambulance: On Anzac Cove. In his diary –‘Our boys are well dug in now, casualties very small today. I went to the trenches tonight but no wounded men, not much shrapnel today. The snipers are very bad, one beggar fired ten shots at me today, they lobed all round but none hit me. The infantry say we are all heroes, nobody can imagine the work we have done, I’ve never worked so hard in my life. No tracks down the hills, many times we had to carry men on our backs, could not get stretchers up, and all this under heavy fire. The Turks are using some explosive bullets, they make awful wounds, the courage of our wounded boys is magnificent, never a word except their bad luck. I picked up one man with eight bullets holes in him; his one trouble was how soon he could get back to the trenches’.
