EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historic artifact, the Pouch badge of the Central Bengal Light Horse from 1884-1901. Created by the British School in the 19th century, this silver badge features an intricate script monogram of CBLH, representing the unit's name. The Central Bengal Light Horse was an auxiliary force within the Indian Army that was established in 1884 and later merged with the Calcutta Light Horse in 1901. This esteemed unit played a crucial role in maintaining law and order during its existence. However, following India's independence in 1947, it was disbanded. Part of Field Marshal Sir John Chapple Indian Army Collection at London's National Army Museum, this remarkable piece offers a glimpse into India's military history and heritage. It serves as a testament to the bravery and dedication of those who served under its banner. With its rich symbolism and exquisite craftsmanship, this pouch badge represents more than just an accessory; it embodies a legacy of service and sacrifice. As we admire this image captured by Bridgeman Images for Fine Art Finder, let us remember all those who have proudly worn such badges throughout history - their stories forever etched into our collective memory.
