Allies Groups - British
4th Indians
The group wear khaki drill as most of the division's fighting was done in North Africa and the Mediterranean and we thought that KD's would get us noticed more in the sea of green and browns you usually see at events.
On our display we talk about the division and about it's battles, we recount stories of their actions and try to show what life in the desert was like, our display is a conglomerate of photographs we have seen in books about the desert war,books about the division and at the imperial war museum.
As a group our aims are simple, to bring to people's attention the sacrifices and actions of the Indian army during world war two
