Indian POW's Kut


Terry

Recommended Posts

I realize that I am probably guilty of extremely wishful thinking, but do any of the Pals know if there are lists,rolls,etc. of the troops who became prisoners when Kut fell. These would be the members of the 6th Indian Division. I have several 1914-15 Stars to Indian battalions from this division and I have often wondered if tucked away in some government office is a list of the POW's.

I've got a copy of the list of British and Indian officers interned at Yozgad, taken from 'The Road to En-dor' [C.W. Hill/E.H. Jones]
