EDITORS COMMENTS
This sepia photo captures a remarkable moment in history, showcasing the Sikhs of the Indian Army during their time in France from 1914-15. The image, taken by Raphael Tuck & Sons, offers a glimpse into the lives of these brave soldiers as they pause with their horses in the picturesque French countryside. Dressed in their distinctive British Indian military attire, adorned with turbans and carrying weapons, this group of Sikh soldiers exudes strength and resilience. Their presence serves as a testament to the significant role played by Indian troops during World War I. The photograph not only highlights the diversity within the Allied forces but also sheds light on an often overlooked aspect of history. These Sikh warriors left behind their homeland to fight alongside their British counterparts on foreign soil. As we delve into this powerful image, it is impossible not to feel a sense of admiration for these men who displayed unwavering loyalty and dedication amidst challenging circumstances. Their contribution to the war effort should never be forgotten. Thanks to Bridgeman Images and eRoyal Society for Asian Affairs for preserving this invaluable piece of history that allows us to reflect upon the sacrifices made by countless individuals during one of humanity's darkest times.
