The Dardanelles campaign was an unsuccessful Allied naval operation in 1915 against the Turkish-held Dardanelles. After a series of unsuccessful naval attacks in January to March 1915, the idea of a purely naval attack was abandoned, and instead planning began for a military action against the Gallipolipeninsula. The only real impact of the naval attack was to alert the Turkish army so that they had time to reinforce and fortify the area before the Gallipoli landings. Research Dardanelles Campaign
