This Monday I had the chance with Onur and Nacho to visit the battlefield were the Battles of 1st Inonu/Bozuyuk and 2nd Inonu/Avgin-Kovalitsa took place during the 1919-1922 Greece-Turkey War (Asia Minor Campaign/Turkish War of Liberation).

Ruined house in Gunduzbey. The house gives an idea of the construction methods and probably were the same in 1921
Terrific tour, Konstantinos! That's some bleak terrain to have to attack across. Thanks for sharing!
