The Advent of No. 1 Squadron
CHAPTER I11 THE hllDDLE EAST-ADVENT OF NO. 1 SQUADRON IT became tlie custoni of the people, and even of the authorities, in Britain to refer to all operations in which British troops were engaged, in theatres of war other than France and Belgium, as “ side-shows.” In a sense they were such, and certainly they were for the greater part of the war treated as of secondary iniportance in the matter of equipment ~ and reinforcements. The Germans also regarded the Turkish theatre in much the same light. Both sides believed, and rightly, that the decision on the Western Front in France would settle tlie issues on all other fields. At least on the British side the lot of the troops who were engaged in “the side- shows ” was probably harder than that of those on the main f ront-harder, because supplies and equipment were generally inferior or insufficient, because soldiers’ home leave was almost unknown, and because, as the war lengthened out, commanders on niinor fronts were liable to be hampered and thwarted indefinitely by the demands of “ the general strategical situation.” The Palestine campaign-perhaps the most important of all tlie Allies’ minor-f ront campaigns-was carried to its brilliantly successful conclusion after bitter experience of niuddle, wasted energy, false moves, and inefficient support of earlier operations in the Near East. In 1915the British Army learned its hard lesson in the Gallipoli Peninsula and in hlesopotaniia. By early 1916 the only relief in the sonilre disillusion of the nation was the splendid heart of the men who fought and suffered and died and in part somehow survived in those badly organised ventures. -
