 * Hello, you're welcome!


 * Yes, I do. My source is the combat report "The Battle of Seddulbahir and Operations of 3/26th Regiment" written by Major Mahmut Sabri Bey, CO of 26th IR. 3rd Bn. Here is a link to translated modern Turkish version On the last page of report, Mahmut Sabri given the following information about casualty numbers of his battalion: "Our casualties were 3 major, (one killed, two wounded) and 570 infantryman." (Including some 70 heavily wounded men abandoned into British hands) Regards. Octopushasnofriends (talk) 23:49, 10 October 2016 (UTC)


 * Thanks very much, is it a published source? Wiki can be picky if it isn't. Regards Keith-264 (talk) 08:28, 11 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Yes. It was published in 1933 by "Harp Akademisi Matbaasi" (The Military Academy Printing Office) You can see the sub-title in pdf, "Yildiz Harp Akademisi Matbaası 1933" The original version is currently available on the archives of Turkish General Staff.
