Watch List notes:

A Great War Gallipoli Casualty Trio awarded to Private Christopher Monahan, of 'B' Company, 5th Battalion, Royal Irish Fusiliers, killed in action on 15 August 1915, where over the next 2 days the 5th and 6th Battalions gallantly held the 'Pimple' feature on the Kiretch Tepe Ridge in the face of withering Turkish fire and artillery. Both battalions were all but annihilated in the process, comprising: 1914-15 Star (12366. Pte. C. Monahan, R. Ir. Fus.); British War and Victory Medals (12366 Pte. C. Monahan. R. Ir. Fus.); Group loose, very fine (3). Private Christopher Monahan, son of John and Mary Monahan, of 156 Parnell Street, Dublin, Ireland, was killed in action at or near the 'Pimple' on the Kiretch Tepe Ridge during the taking of this feature on 15 August 1915 at Gallipoli. The 6th Royal Irish Fusiliers, supported by its sister battalion, the 5th, held out doggedly against bombs, trench raids and artillery fire, but retired the next day (16th) with very heavy casualties. Private Monahan is remembered at the Helles Memorial, Gallipoli.
