124th Duchess of Connaught's Own Baluchistan Infantry

The 124th Duchess of Connaught's Own Baluchistan Infantry was a distinguished infantry regiment of the British Indian Army, formed in the late 19th century. Established in 1903, the regiment served as a part of the British Crown's military presence in India, primarily tasked with maintaining order and protecting British interests in the region. With roots tracing to the recruitment of Baluch tribesmen, the regiment was notable for its multicultural composition and played a significant role in various military campaigns across the Indian subcontinent. Initially stationed in Baluchistan, the unit gained recognition for its bravery during World War I and World War II, participating in significant battles across Europe and the Middle East. The regiment was disbanded after Indian independence in 1947, concluding a storied legacy.
