EDITORS COMMENTS
A Regimental Gathering on the Parade Ground of Chakrata, Uttarakhand, India, circa 1906. Nestled in the picturesque Dehradun district of Uttarakhand, the cantonment town of Chakrata serves as a testament to the rich military history of India. Established in 1866 by Colonel Hume of the esteemed 55th Regiment of the British Indian Army, this cantonment town was first occupied by troops and officers in April 1869. This evocative photograph captures the regiment in camp on the parade ground, a scene that would have been a common sight in the early 20th century. Soldiers, dressed in their uniforms, are seen engaged in various drills and inspections, while officers oversee the proceedings from a distance. The lush greenery of the surrounding hills provides a striking contrast to the ordered precision of the parade ground. Chakrata, located at an altitude of 7,200 feet, was strategically positioned to guard the approaches to the Himalayas. The cantonment town, which was originally established to protect British interests in the region, continues to serve as a military base even today. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the British Indian Army held sway over the region, and the parade ground of Chakrata echoed with the sound of marching feet and the crisp commands of officers. A poignant reminder of the rich military heritage of India, this image is a must-have for history buffs, military enthusiasts, and anyone with an appreciation for the beauty and grandeur of the past.
