"Cannan, after explaining these plans, allowed them
to be discussed. Thereupon one young Tasmanian officer, Lieutenant
Hinman, urged a strong objection to the whole undertaking,
pointing out that in the morning following the assault the Australians
would certainly be driven out of any captured trenches by the Turkish
machine-guns, which would enfilade them from both flanks."
