""Abdoul the Terrible" was nicknamedby the Anzacs . A soldier killed by sniper fire from the Ottoman front when you go to that area of the bullet entry and exit places and soldiers from a standing start, with shooting angle calculation is made has become a legend. The shelter before sunrise to sunset in the evening still expects to settle the most suitable for the target position would not have occurred without the fire. When officers killed one of the enemy news spread immediately to the front of the Ottoman soldiers morale was provided to find. The final destination of Billy Sing, aka "Assassin of Gallipoli" i kill trenches for a week had been waiting, Billy Singida when you see the trigger ridden but Singer lookout Sheehan's jaw shattered bullet Singin right shoulder have been calculated. Sheehan was sent to Australia, Sings a week later returned to the front. Abdul's place in the second encounter were identified and killed by a scout olmuštur.ruh bless, bless the motherland"

Billy Sing was a remarkable Australian sniper. He had somewhere between 150 – 300 kills and was called the Assassin. Abdul was a renowned Turkish sniper killed by Billy in a snipping contest (a bit like a WWI version of the movie Stalingrad). Billy and his spotter were hit by artillery fire after Abdul was dispatched.
