EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the historic helmet worn by Captain John Grant Malcolmson, VC of the 3rd Bombay Light Cavalry in 1860. The metal helmet, displayed at the National Army Museum in London, is a testament to Captain Malcolmson's bravery and heroism during his service. The helmet holds great significance as it was worn by Captain Malcolmson during his remarkable actions at the Battle of Koosh-ab in 1857. Serving as a Lieutenant in the 3rd Regiment of Bombay Light Cavalry, he led a charge that successfully broke through a square formation of highly trained Persian infantry. The portrait painted by Louis William Desanges captures Captain Malcolmson holding this very helmet, adding an intimate connection to its historical value. It is part of a collection that includes other uniforms and equipment associated with him. Captain John Grant Malcolmson earned the prestigious Victoria Cross for his exceptional courage and leadership during the Persian War of 1856-57. This esteemed recognition further emphasizes his contribution to British military history. As we admire this artifact from another era, we are reminded not only of its beauty but also of the sacrifices made by individuals like Captain Malcolmson who dedicated their lives to protecting their country. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of our shared heritage and honors those who have served with valor and distinction.
