    p 2 A Special Corps the beginnings of Gorkha service with the British A. P. “Jim” Coleman Prepared in electronic format from the original on the instruction of the Estate of A. P. Coleman by R Meigh. All rights reserved © Estate of A. P. Coleman 2010 Downloaded at www.philharding.net/harding ii p 3 Dedication This book has been published through the generosity of Mr and Mrs Ean Ramsay, close friends of the author. Ean Ramsay is the great-great- great-grandson of Major-General Sir David Ochterlony Bart. G.C.B (1758-1825) who, in 1815, first recruited large numbers of Gorkhas and other hillmen into the East India Company's .Bengal Army. In so doing he founded what was to become the British Indian Army's Gurkha Brigade, and, after 1947, the British Army's Brigade of Gurkhas and the Gorkha units of the Army of India. In 1850, during the Governor- Generalship of Lord Dalhousie, Chief of the Clan Ramsay, the Nasiri Battalion raised by Sir David Ochterlony was brought into the regular Bengal Army as the 66th or Goorka Regiment Ean Ramsay is a greatly respected honorary member of the Regimental Association of the 1st King George V's Own Gurkha Rifles (The Malaun Regiment) which derived from the Nasiri Battalion. Ean and Lydia Ramsay share Sir David Ochterlony's great admiration for Gorkha soldiers, so much so that they have requested that proceeds from the sale of this book be devoted to the Gurkha Welfare Trust, a most worthy charity to which they have already made generous endowments.

Reading the accounts of previous British and Russian Wars in Afghanistan, I was initially disconcerted with the prevailing view that any outside intervention in Afghanistan constituted a ‘graveyard of empires’. My reservation was reinforced with the brutal experiences of the ‘fighting season’ during the summer of 2009 in southern Afghanistan. ISAF’s Coalition Force operations were, at best, in a strategic stalemate against a resilient enemy in many of the locations that feature in this thesis – Kandahar, Gereshk, Qalat, Panjwa’i and the Arghandab River Valley. However to my surprise, upon reading Stocqueler’s biography of the British commander of the Kandahar Garrison in the First Anglo-Afghan War, Major-General Sir William Nott, I concluded that Britain’s Kandahar Campaign had indeed been an outstanding success.
