Note 84 — THE ATTEMPT TO BREAK THROUGH SOUTH OF YPRES
G. C. (Graeme Chamley) Wynne translation
The Indian units hitherto employed under the Cavalry Corps (57th Rifles and 129th Baluchis) had already been withdrawn to Kemmel, and were not in action near Oosttaverne on 1st November. This account of the ‘treacherous methods of the Indians’ smacks of the conventional; it is what was attributed to the Ghurkhas in some sections of the German Press, and seems inserted rather to excite odium against the British for calling in Asiatics to oppose the disciples of ‘Kultur.’
