Kut and 1916
Some 11, 800 British soldiers, most of them Indians, became prisoners after the five-month Siege of Kut, in Mesopotamia, in April 1916.
Although the film does show that Lawrence could speak and read Arabic, could quote the Quran, and was reasonably knowledgeable about the region, it barely mentions his archaeological travels from 1911 to 1914 in Syria and Arabia, and ignores his espionage work, including a pre-war topographical survey of the Sinai Peninsula and his attempts to negotiate the release of British prisoners at Kut in Mesopotamia in 1916.
Townshend, with some 8, 000 surviving soldiers, finally surrendered Kut on April 29, 1916.
The British went back on the offensive in December 1916 with a larger and better-supplied force under General Sir Frederick Stanley Maude and reconquered Kut on February 23, 1917.
The siege of Kut Al Amara ( 7 December 1915 29 April 1916 ), also known as the First Battle of Kut, was the besieging of 8, 000 strong British-Indian garrison in the town of Kut, 100 miles south of Baghdad, by the Ottoman Army.
Maude arrived to catch the end of the British failure at the Siege of Kut where he was promoted to Lieutenant-General, replacing General George Gorringe as commander of the newly dubbed Tigris Corps ( III Indian Army Corps ) in July 1916.
The 13th Division, as the strongest unit available, became the spearhead the Tigris Corps ' attempt to relieve the Kut garrison beginning on 6 April 1916.
On 29 April 1916, following the Tigris Corps ' failure to break the Turkish siege and the sinking of the steamer Julnar as it attempted to steam upriver past the Turkish defenders, the Kut garrison surrendered.
On 12 December 1916, the division would advance from Sheik Sa ' ad on Kut.
