EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of the British Indian Army during the early 20th century, featuring soldiers from three distinguished regiments: the 35th Scinde Horse, 36th Jacobs Horse, and 37th Lancers (Baluch Horse). The scene is set in India, the colonial power's most significant military stronghold, with the soldiers dressed in their full regimental uniforms. The 35th Scinde Horse, also known as the Sindh Horse, is represented by the rider on the far left, wearing a turban and holding a sword. This cavalry regiment was raised in 1843 and saw action in numerous campaigns, including the Second Afghan War and the First World War. To the right, a soldier from the 36th Jacobs Horse is shown, wearing a helmet and carrying a lance. This regiment, raised in 1853, was known for its exceptional horsemanship and played a crucial role in the defense of British India. The 37th Lancers (Baluch Horse) are represented by the rider in the center, wearing a helmet and carrying a saber. This regiment, raised in 1847, was composed primarily of Baluch tribesmen from the Baluchistan region. They were renowned for their bravery and loyalty, and the regiment saw action in various campaigns, including the Second Afghan War and the First World War. The photograph provides a glimpse into the rich military history of British India, showcasing the diverse array of regiments that made up the Indian Army. The soldiers' determined expressions and poised readiness convey the importance of their role in maintaining the British colonial rule in India during this period.
