Ultimately, one million Indian troops served overseas, of whom 62,000 died and another 67,000 were wounded. The Indian Army fought against the German Empire in German East Africa and on the Western Front. At the First Battle of Ypres, Khudadad Khan became the first Indian to be awarded a Victoria Cross.” “By their active cooperation with the Allied Nations of the West in their epic struggle for liberty and justice, the Ruling Princes and leaders of the East have made their latest contribution to the advancement of humanity. They command the respect and admiration of the entire world by their capacity for devotion to the principles of true progress” (Earl of Carnwath). “The part played by Indian troops in the opening stages of the War in France, their gallant and courageous bearing in the face of strange conditions, an adverse climate and great odds, are known in every corner of the British Empire. They accomplished splendid things, and won high renown when there were few to uphold the banner of the King-Emperor.”
