Description AWM caption : Group of Australian and British artillerymen beside a well dug in 12 pdr naval gun. Lieutenant (Lt) John Heathcote Newmarch MC, 1st Division Artillery, is sitting on the gun's trail and wearing a white shirt and no hat. The recommendation for Lt Heathcote's award is as follows: "On 3rd June moved 12 pdr. naval gun to forward position. On 4th June brought oblique fire to bear on Turkish works and entrenchments. During the engagements on these and subsequent dates the fire from this gun was very effective. This gun remained in action although continuously under heavy howitzer fire. On 12th June the gun emplacement was completely demolished by shell fire. The gun was then withdrawn. On 4th August he moved a 15 pdr. gun into position in rear of our firing line on the right of the 42nd Division. On 6th August, whilst in command of this gun he was dangerously wounded. The fire from this gun was most effective. Left Anzac on 6 August 1915".
Date circa. June-July 1915
