Indian Troops: A Glimpse into their Diverse Journey From the opulent halls of Buckingham Palace to the dusty corners of Shan-Hai-Quan, they have left an indelible mark wherever they tread. In "The King's Dinner, " we witness their regal presence as Fijian troops stand guard at Holloway, a testament to their unwavering loyalty. "Far from their Sunny Climes, " these brave soldiers find themselves in a corner of the fort at Shan-Hai-Quan. The litho captures both their strength and resilience amidst unfamiliar surroundings. Similarly, in "The War in the Soudan, " an engraving depicts Indian troops fearlessly battling on foreign soil, showcasing their unwavering commitment to duty. "Our Indian Contingent" showcases unity as diverse faces come together under one flag, exemplifying India's rich tapestry of cultures united for a common cause. Their visit to Manchester on July 31st is immortalized in a black and white photograph that encapsulates the warmth and admiration bestowed upon them by locals. In another engraving titled "Arrival at Malta, " we witness history unfold as Screw-Steamer Goa brings the 25th Madras Infantry with Duke of Athol in tow. These images serve as reminders that even far away from home, these valiant warriors carry with them honor and courage. As seen in "Oriental Homage to a Great British Warrior, " Indian troops pay tribute to those who fought alongside them - displaying respect transcending borders. In China, captured through a black and white photo titled "With Allied Forces in China", they stand shoulder-to-shoulder with comrades from around the world against shared adversaries. A momentous occasion unfolds when His Majesty reviews Indian troops at Buckingham Palace; medals are awarded by none other than The King himself – recognition well-deserved for sacrifices made far away from their motherland.
