We Too Were There

Indians at Gallipoli
The valour and sacrifices of the Indian troops, though have never been subjected to scrutiny, the due recognition and acknowledgement, however, has eluded these name­less and faceless souls.
‘This book is a successful attempt at providing due recognition to the service and sacrifice of unsung Indian brave hearts of WW 1 at Gallipoli.’ – Prof. (Dr) Charanjit Thandi Sohi (Granddaughter of Sepoy Udey Singh) ‘Colonel Hundal’s welcome book markedly extends our knowledge of the Indian Army’s contri­bution to the Gallipoli campaign. Drawing on fresh primary sources, his book constitutes the most substantial Indian account of the campaign.’ – Prof. Peter Stanley (Author of Die in Battle, Do not Despair: The Indians on Gallipoli, 1915) ‘The significant role of the Indian Army in the Gallipoli Campaign has often been over­looked. This well researched work tells the story of the Sikh infantrymen, and artillery gunners who fought there. The enormous casualties suffered by the 14th Ferozepore Sikhs during the Third Battle of Krithia in June 1915 bear testimony to their dedication and valour. With Colonel Hundal’s book, a forgotten chapter of India’s military history has been written and he has brought new information to the historiography of the Indian involvement in the Great War.’ – Sir Mark Tully, former BBC Journalist An extensive exploration of the contribution of Indian troops along the Western Front, while has produced a reasonable quantum of commentary, the contri­bution of the Indian troops in military operations on the peninsula of Gallipoli, except for a few, has however, not been adequately researched.
