Pte Archie ‘Smiler’ Williams (Lilydale), 8th Battalion: At Anzac Cove. In his diary – ‘Great was our joy to hear that we were leaving the Peninsula for a spell and at 3am the next morning we embarked on minesweepers and were conveyed to Imbros, a small island about two miles from the Peninsula. While we were there we did not do badly because we got fruit, eggs, chocolate and many other little luxuries we had long been without, besides a swim daily’.
