Very touching. Glad some kids still care.
Great documentary and my god what a credit young Mia is to her family , I’m sure her great great grandad will be looking down proud !
My grandfather was over there...it was such a tragic waste of all those young men ! And to think that in just twenty years it would happen again ! How foolish and cruel people can be !!! God rest all those poor lads !!!!
We need more children like Mia.. children that care about their history.... She has an incredibly bright future with the attitude she has.
Mia looked so much like Alfred when she found out she was going to touch the real medals. That smile looked just like his in his photos.
I visited that wonderful museum during my vacation to Australia. Wonderful museum filled with incredible history.
As long as people are remembering that's eternal life
More than I can ask for, amen!
Fantastic documentary! To Mia and all other Australians, this American, and I believe many more, will never forget your sacrifices. We will always have your back and likewise, we know we will always be able to count on you (same goes to the Brits of course)! 👍🇺🇸✨🥈🥉🎖
Mia is a treasure. We need more young people like her. I'm sure her great great grandad would have been proud of her.
greetings from Turkey.
peace at home peace in the world

Mia is a credit to Capt. Shouts sacrifices..God Bless.

Ben Roberts-Smith is the subject of a War Crimes Investigation by the IGADF, in relation to ' kicking a bound prisoner, named Ali Jan, off a cliff during his tour in Afghanistan '. SOME HERO ! ! !
I understand that members of his unit, testified against him.
Alfred Shout was actually born in Wellington, New Zealand! He emigrated to Australia after service in the Boer War, in 1907! Remember that New Zealand put the NZ in ANZAC!
Alfred Shout also has something in common with Phar Lap and the Pavlova. All started life in New Zealand.
Bravo, Mr. Stokes..we thank you.
“Bravo?”
He mishandled a grenade and blew himself up.
Atrocities committed during war (by any/all side) should be able to teach humans what a waste war is.
What happened to this fine man (and any soldier) is an atrocity.
The way the narrator talks about that Rhodes fella, it sounds like he has a crush on the guy.
Valour inspires humans to do Extra-ordinary deeds! The reason that the past should be taught, remembered and honored in order to achieve the admirable and avoid the reprehensible!!!
Show starts @ 3:00 Youre Welcome .
Mustafa Kemal Ataturk,the Great Turkish Leader wrote the famous words that reached out to the mothers of his former enemies, in 1934 ? and shrouded in doubt by cynical Allied Nations,who seem ostriches
and deny all those who caused them loss..severe loss
“Those heroes that shed their blood And lost their lives.
You are now lying in the soil of a friendly country.
Therefore, rest in peace.
There is no difference between the Johnnies And the Mehmets to us where they lie side by side
Here in this country of ours,You, the mothers,Who sent their sons from far away countries
Wipe away your tears,Your sons are now lying in our bosom
And are in peace After having lost their lives on this land they have
Become our sons as well”.
Bravo,i applaud you Kemal Attaturk ,for the largeness of your Heart and Compassion in your Soul ,to so say these words of an Enemy who caused you much harm,needlessly,and fought a Battle at Dardanelles very bravely but doomed at the outset.
Ill conceived,ill prepared no Ammo ,Equipment or adequate men,the 10 month long horrendous saga was a tragedy of epic proportions,Churchill should have been tried,sentenced to death,hanged,drawn and quartered.
He sent too many utterly Brave men to their certain death. to satisfy his overblown Ego much like his proportions...
As First Lord of Admiralty,at 40 the ambitious Churchill , rising Political star, and Dreamer, also fancied himself a Military strategist who had bold answers and bolder strokes to end the First World War..
exceeded
His callousness 3 decades later led to the Great Indian Famine of 1943 in Bengal,4 Million poor Indians dead...written
He was Albanian not Turkish
Im proud Turk. To all the Fallen RIP.
I´m the first! Lets learn about history. Thanks for this Timeline.
australia has no history
So you have no history , you are the dog of the americans and the british even now .
@꧁༺KARTAL PENÇESİ༻꧂ Thanks for the compliment I prefer to be a dog than be call Kartal
Correct me I'm wrong, but lm pretty sure captain Alfred shout VC was born in Wellington, NZ
Typical bloody aussies
Its extremely creepy that they so clearly coached this young girl on what to say, but its even worse how many people in the comments are eating it up
Only a few people deserve to be given respect regardless of whether you know them or not, and VC winners are among those few
I'm not buying the 3 grenade story, it's too farfetched imo. I mean to theorize that Shout put one or two lit grenades in his pocket is ridiculous! Story reeks of sensationalism. I mean even Oliver didn't seem to buy it. Shout was a bona fide war hero, I'm not disputing that, I just don't buy that particular story.
They did not explain why someone was given a medal who mis handled a grenade, killing himself in the process.
A s a Sweede, is he Irish?
Scottish
They sold his VC ?
52 minutes and the only notable thing I learned about the man is that he blew himself up. Maybe spend less time tracking how a child feels about their ancestor?
Naturally, all the families and people of the world need healing about Gallipoli and the killed Australian soldiers. However, the documentary fails immensely for not emphasizing the reckless ideas and orders of Churchill, who clearly didn’t care if Australians would be killled (just used them as fodder), while at the same time depreciating the Turkish people. Also, there is no word about the slaughter of Turkish by Australians, as well as the opposite. There is no bravery that is justifiable by slaughter of other people and of your own. Is bravery only in complying to orders of corrupt governments, over the people of other corrupt governments to fight the people of yet another corrupt government? True, bravery may be in taking care of others (family as well as supposed enemies), but the documentary should tell, or at least allude to the other sides of that Gallipoli Massacre (the Turkish people suffering), as well as its relation to the previous Armenian genocide and the suffering, misgivings of Armenian victims as well as its leaders culpability. No history can be told with only one side being able to speak.
I don’t appreciate that Timeline has added these History Hits advertisements with Dan to all their videos and I am considering canceling my subscription since I pay extra for Premium UA-cam to avoid ads. I am not interested in Dan’s new channel and I consider his ads a waster of my time and am offended that they have gotten around the removal of ads to Premium subscribers by adding ads at the beginning of every video. Sure, I can and do fast-forward past Dan, but I don’t appreciate it and therefore every video, regardless of quality of content, will get a thumbs down from now on.
Offended? 2021 really has mad puffs of man.
no one caressss........
what brought those fkng heros there?
Wonder what wrong Afghans and Turks did to Anzac countries?
NICE COMMENTARY IN A GREAT ACCENT....OF A VERY BRAVE MAN
I THINK THE INDIANS COPIED IT..OR WERE TUTORED BY ENGLISH TUTORS WITH THE SAME ACCENT!
Was that even necessary? Grow up.
no heroes sir
"tosses medals on book shelf" ....=|
Of course he was a kiwi
Who else thinks that Charlie Martens is a dead ringer for Joe Biden.
How about teaching people who the TRUE Israelites are? 🇺🇸🇬🇧and ALL KINDRED CHRISTIAN NATIONS: HalleluYAH!!
. . As it was, his aversion to religion, in the sense usually attached to the term, was of the same kind with that of Lucretius: he regarded it with the feelings due not to a mere mental delusion, but to a great moral evil. He looked upon it as the greatest enemy of morality: first, by setting up fictitious excellences-belief in creeds, devotional feelings, and ceremonies, not connected with the good of human-kind-and causing these to be accepted as substitutes for genuine virtues: but above all, by radically vitiating the standard of morals; making it consist in doing the will of a being, on whom it lavishes indeed all the phrases of adulation, but whom in sober truth it depicts as eminently hateful. (John Stuart Mill about his father.)
