	First World War.com - Who's Who - Otto Liman von Sanders
		Otto Liman von Sanders (1855-1929), a German officer, was responsible for transforming the efficiency of the Ottoman army in the months prior to World War One.
		Rising to the rank of Lieutenant General the unpopular Liman served in numerous staff and divisional commands before being appointed director of a German military mission to Turkey in 1913 intended to reorganise the army of the Ottoman Empire.
		A compromise arrangement was subsequently agreed whereby Liman was appointed to the rather less senior (and less influential) position of Inspector General in January 1914.

		The chief of staff for Ottoman army was a German, Colonel Kress von Kressenstein, who organized the attack and managed to get supplies for the army as it crossed the desert.
		Djemal had given real command to German officers like von Kressenstein and von Falkenhayn more than a year earlier but now, defeated like Enver Pasha was at the Battle of Sarikamis, he gave up even nominal command and returned the capital.
		Because the British achieved complete control of the air with their new fighter planes, the Turks, and their new German commander General Liman von Sanders, had no clear idea where the British were going to attack.

		The leader, Conrad von H6tzendorf, was supported by many others, including some of the higher officials in Berchtold's foreign ministry-in particular his chief adviser Count A. Hoyos-and the influential and determined German Ambassador Heinrich von Tschirschky.

	Interwar Turkey
		German General Otto Liman von Sanders had been appointed inspector general to supervise the retraining and reequipping of the Ottoman army after the Balkan wars, but a British admiral held a parallel position in the Ottoman navy, and orders for warships--including two dreadnoughts--had been placed with British shipyards.

		Late in the campaign Atatürk succeeded Liman von Sanders in command of Turkish forces in Syria and successfully withdrew many units intact into Anatolia.

		If the English had only had the courage to rush more ships through the Dardanelles, they could have got to Constantinople; but their delay enabled us thoroughly to fortify the Peninsula, and in six weeks’ time we had taken down there over 200 Austrian Skoda guns.
