  • 30Th PUNJABIS at TANDAMUTI HILL and NAKADI RIDGE East Africa, February – October 1917 Harry Fecitt, March 2015
    1 THE 30th PUNJABIS AT TANDAMUTI HILL AND NAKADI RIDGE East Africa, February – October 1917 Harry Fecitt, March 2015 Introduction The 30th Punjabis started the war as a Class Company Regiment containing 4 companies of Sikhs, 2 companies of Dogras and 2 companies of Punjabi Mussulmans; this composition was later reorganised by halving the number of companies to four, each having 4 platoons. A 14-month stay in the Daryaganj Lines, Delhi, resulted in much sickness from malignant malaria, and twice in late 1914 the regiment reported itself unfit for service in France. The regiment was involved in 1915 in operations against the Mohmands on the North-West Frontier, and there Subadar Muhammad Khan, 29th Punjabis attached to 30th Punjabis, and No. 4391 Havildar Sher Khan were awarded the Indian Distinguished Service Medal. After a further 11 months spent in India the 30th Punjabis was deployed to East Africa in November 1916. The situation in early 1917 After the fierce fighting for the crossing of the Rufiji River, described in the article Fighting For The Rufiji River Crossing: The British 1st East African Brigade in action German East Africa, 1 to 19 January 1917, (where Subadar Allah Ditta won a posthumous Indian Order of Merit, 2nd Class) the 30th Punjabis moved north and in June 1917 the regiment was at Tabora on the German Central Railway that ran from Dar Es Salaam westwards to Lake Tanganyika. Here a newly-arrived draft of 90 Rank & File brought the regimental strength up to 4 British and 6 Indian officers and 259 sepoys.

  • The Unmaking of an Imperial Army: the Indian Army in World War II
    Asian Studies Centre St Antony’s College, University of Oxford South Asia Seminar, Week 8 The Unmaking of an Imperial Army: The Indian Army in World War II Tarak Barkawi Reader in International Relations, London School of Economics Tuesday March 7th, 2 p.m. Pavilion Room, St Antony’s College The shock of repeated defeats, massive expansion, and the pressures of operations on multiple fronts transformed the Indian Army in World War II. It had to commission ever greater numbers of Indians as officers. Recruitment of other ranks reached beyond the favoured Martial Races. In the field, officers bent and then broke the rigid ethnic rules around which the army was organized, in small and large ways. The right rations, the right type of recruit, the officer knowledgeable in specific languages or religions, were not always available. Nonetheless, the army managed to recover, reform, and go on to victory. Colonial knowledge and the official Orientalism so evident in the ethnic structuring of the army was less relevant to managing the army at war. In large measure, Indian soldiers fought the Japanese led by a combination of emergency-commissioned nationalists (the new Indian officers) and British officers who were new to India and did not speak their soldiers’ language. The reasons why the Indian Army fought effectively for their colonial rulers were not to be found in stereotypes of Martial Races or South Asian warrior values. Tarak Barkawi is Reader in the Department of International Relations, London School of Economics. He earned his doctorate at the University of Minnesota and specialises in the study of war, armed forces and society with a focus on conflict between the West and the global South.
