Who Does The Dying? ‘Martial Races’ and War Time Unit Deployment in the Indian Army Ammon Frederick Harteis Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori Frederick Harteis 1 Abstract During the Second World War, the Indian Army held back units and soldiers that were not from the so-called “martial races” from frontline combat service. The British “martial races” theory held that only a small number of communities in India were fit for military service and people from all “non-martial” communities should be excluded from the Army. Has the Indian Army, after gaining independence from British leadership, contended the Second World War practice of deploying “martial” units in combat while assigning “non-martial” units to non- combat roles? It has been conclusively demonstrated that “martial race” groups have contended to be overrepresented in the post-colonial Indian Army.

    Lothians and Border Yeomanry) Squadron, the Scottish and North Irish Yeomanry

    THE HISTORY OF E (LOTHIANS AND BORDER YEOMANRY) SQUADRON, THE SCOTTISH AND NORTH IRISH YEOMANRY The full title of E Squadron is E (Lothians and Border Yeomanry) Squadron, The Scottish and North Irish Yeomanry. This title reflects the complicated history of the Sqn. This brief history is intended give an overview of the many tasks that this Sqn has been asked to do over the years. The other Sqns in The SNIY have equally varied histories and have had to prove just as adaptable. The Sqns of the SNIY are:- A (Ayrshire (Earl of Carrick’s Own) Yeomanry) Squadron, based in Ayr. B (North Irish Horse) Squadron, based in Belfast. C (Fife & Forfar Yeomanry/Scottish Horse) Squadron, based in Cupar, Fife. E (Lothians and Border Yeomanry) Squadron, based in Edinburgh. Regimental Headquarters is co-located with E Sqn at Redford Infantry Barracks in Edinburgh. E Sqn’s battle honours are recorded as in the photograph of the Regimental Standard, held in the HQ, Younger House. The Sqn’s predecessors most notably served in the Boer War and the First and Second World Wars. A memorial to the Lothians and Borders men who fell in the Boer War is located outside Dunbar Parish Church in East Lothian (in which the Regimental Standard is laid up); Dunbar is regarded as the historical home of the Sqn, having been home to the L&BH/Y through the late 19th and the early 20th Centuries. Today, this connection and that with the county town of East Lothian, is recognised through the naming of ‘Dunbar’ and ‘Haddington’ Troops and the SNIY ACF detachments.
