Gallipoli
The initial reason for the ANZAC remembrance was the landing of the ANZAC troops at Gallipoli on 25 April 1915. 744 men were killed on the first day, and about 620 of them were Australian. Over the ensuing months, many more were killed, but this was not a single battle - it was a long, protracted campaign, the Campaign of Gallipoli.

the point of what happened in gallipoli was for Australia and New Zealand to conquour part of Gallipoli and taking out the guns based on the river.
CEW Bean was the Australian official war correspondent, and later official war historian of the time. He landed with the ANZACs at Gallipoli, and his writings contributed significantly to the development and growth of the ANZAC legend. His detailed reports on the landing and subsequent battle/s provided a unique and personal perspective on the events.
It wasn't a war, it was a battle but basically a suicide mission. The Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (or ANZAC) were meant to land somewhere else but instead landed at Gallipoli and got beaten by Turkish troops and over 2,500 men died those days.
