	The Australian 4th Division at Bullecourt April 1917
		The 4th Division were attacking from left to right.
		The only way for 4th Division to make any headway at all was with further supplies of ammunition and grenades and above all covering artillery fire.
		The feeling within the Australian ranks was that the attack had been ill-conceived and rushed through without any proper planning, relying on tanks to do something and in a manner that had never been tried and for which they were unsuited.

		The waiting Australian troops were mortared in their trenches by the enemy and as they went over the top they were surprised to see German troops advancing under cover of the mortar bombardment; by chance the opposing troops had each launched an assault on each other at the same time!
		When the Australians reached the Ridge, they were able at long last to see the German rear lines stretching before them, the only obstacle to their success was the German occupied Village of Passchendaele to their north.

		The offensive at Le Hamel was planned by John Monash, commander of the Australian Imperial Force (AIF) on the Western Front.
		Launched on 4th July it was carried out by the Australian 4th Division and four companies of the United States Army.

	Bullecourt "the Blood Tub" where distrust peaked
		Sandwiched between, and sometimes overshadowed by, two of the best-known Australian actions of the war - Pozières (July-August 1916) and Passchendaele (October 1917) - Bullecourt did not involve the level of casualties of these two, but it nevertheless resulted in huge losses for the Australian divisions involved.
		The 4th and 12th Brigades of the 4th Australian Division, despite the failure of the tanks, showed remarkable courage and ability and achieved what most observers believed was impossible, by breaking into part of the enemy trenches.
		In the event, the 5th Australian Brigade was heavily mauled by these guns when they veered off line and came into the view of the Quéant defenders.

		The 2nd Anzac Corps (3rd Australian Division, N.Z. Division and 25th Division) attacked the Ridge, having the 9th Corps on its left.
		The Australians had promised to see that these men were looked after, and would have done so directly they themselves had settled down, but the Ruahine stretcher-bearers thought it their duty to get their own mates into safety rather than rest in Bulford Camp.
		No wonder the Australians' name for a private soldier is "digger." However, our spell of work was short, as the 4th Australian Division came over from the Messines sector to relieve us and we moved once more out to billets.
