Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Railway work in the bush on a British front - An Indian Railway Corps preparing a light-line track. The Indian Army comprises among its regiments of the line a number of battalions which bear the title of "Pioneers," a designation not in the English Home Service Army for corresponding units. They are distinct from the "Sappers and Miners" of the Indian Service, who answer more or less to the British Royal Engineers, and are organised in regiments with special companies and sections under officers of the Royal Engineers, with native subordinate officers, N.C.O.'s and rank and file, as in all the Indian Staff Corps regiments of whatever arm of the Service, who arc specially trained mostly all at Roorkee. Certain of the companies are " Railway Companies," and something of the work that is falling to them to perform at the front is seen in the above illustration,—[Photo. by Gorce.] |
