Book Description

About the Book Brevet-Major W.J. Ottley, author of "With Mounted Infantry in Tibet," was a British Army officer who documented his experiences serving in Tibet. His account provides a detailed narrative of military operations, challenges faced, and the unique conditions encountered during his service in the region.

About the Author "Mounted Infantry in Tibet" by Brevet-Major W.J. Ottley offers a vivid account of the challenges faced by British forces in Tibet during the early 20th century. Ottley, a seasoned military officer, details the harsh terrain, extreme weather, and logistical difficulties encountered while conducting operations in this remote region. His observations provide valuable insights into the adaptability and resilience required for mounted infantry to operate effectively in such demanding conditions, highlighting both the strategic and personal aspects of the campaign.

Preface On the demobilisation of the Tibet Mission Force some officers of the Sikh Pioneer and Gurkha Regiments suggested to me that I should write an account of the doings of the native officers and men who composed the 1st Company of Mounted Infantry in the Tibet Mission Force, as they considered it would be interesting to the regiments of those races in the Indian Army, and would commemorate the first occasion that Native Mounted Infantry have been employed on active service on or beyond the Indian frontier in Asia. The 32nd Sikh Pioneers were raised during the great Indian Mutiny, and were employed at Delhi in fortifying and defending the British camp at that memorable siege. A detachment of them carried and laid the powder-bags to blow in the Kashmir Gate, which led to the fall of the city. The whole detachment (nineteen men) were either killed or wounded.
