@ub1ub2media: 1914 Sikhs is a ceremonial marching troop established to commemorate the countless Sikh soldiers who served during the First World War and beyond. Through powerful public appearances, we honour their service, sacrifice, and legacy. The troop is made up of both military and civilian volunteers, united by a shared commitment to remembrance. Dressed in authentic World War I Sikh infantry uniforms, complete with historically accurate accessories such as the Lee-Enfield rifle, each member represents the proud martial tradition of the Sikh soldier (via @bbclondon) #UB1UB2 #London
why aren’t the other religions of Punjab mentioned. Because in fact, the majority of the soldiers were in fact MUSLIM and then followed by Punjabi Hindus especially in ww1. In ww2 , it was still the PUNJABI MUSLIMS. Please give credit to all the Punjabi’s . Here are the approximate figures by religion (Indian Army as a whole) as per one source:
• ~ Punjabi Recruitment in British Indian Army (WWI + WWII)
• Muslim Punjabis: ~232,000 soldiers (~42%)
• Hindu Punjabis: ~185,740 soldiers (~33%)
• Sikh Punjabis: ~139,925 soldiers (~25%)
• Other / Misc: ~35,000 soldiers (~6%)
Key Point:
While Sikhs were highly visible, Muslims and Hindus from Punjab made up the majority of recruits.
