A Matter for the Regiment: A Gripping Tale of War, Adventure, and Personal Evolution Captain James Ogilvie led B Company of the Queen's Own Royal Strathspeys, the 114th Highlanders, through the thronged streets of London during the diamond jubilee celebrations of the Queen Empress. It was a day he would always remember with pride, as his company represented the British Army in India. However, trouble did not pause for the celebrations of the Raj; the Rajah of Drosh had rebelled, and battalion losses were heavy. Ogilvie was tasked with returning to India with a larger-than-usual draft of raw recruits from the regimental depot at Invermore. Among these was a gentleman ranker, a fugitive from the Guards, who was to find his craving for active service brutally fulfilled up the Chitral River and in the sniper fire of the passes between Peshawar and Drosh. Back in cantonments, Ogilvie discovered that his commanding officer had more on his mind than battalion losses, grievous though they had been. His second in command, the irascible and intemperate Major Lord Brora, had gone absent without leave and was reportedly consorting with the rebel Rajah. Calcutta was reluctant to disown Brora until more was known about his whereabouts.
A Matter for the Regiment: A Gripping Tale of War, Adventure, and Personal Evolution Капитан Джеймс Огилви возглавил роту B Собственного Королевского Стратспейса Королевы, 114-го Горца, по многолюдным улицам Лондона во время празднования бриллиантового юбилея Императрицы Королевы. Это был день, который он всегда с гордостью вспоминал, поскольку его рота представляла британскую армию в Индии. Однако на празднования Раджа беда не сделала паузы; раджа Дроша восстал, и потери батальона были тяжелыми. Огилви было поручено вернуться в Индию с большим, чем обычно, набором новобранцев из полкового склада в Инверморе. Среди них был джентльмен ранкер, беглец из гвардии, который должен был найти свою тягу к активной службе, жестоко выполненную вверх по реке Читрал и в снайперском огне перевалов между Пешаваром и Дрошем. Вернувшись в кантоны, Огилви обнаружил, что его командир имел в виду больше, чем потери батальона, хотя они и были. Его второй командир, вспыльчивый и несдержанный майор лорд Брора, ушел без отпуска и, как сообщается, сотрудничал с мятежным раджой. Калькутта неохотно отрекалась от Броры, пока о его местонахождении не стало известно больше.
A Matter for the Regiment : A Gripping Tale of War, Adventure, and Personal Evolution capitaine James Ogilvie a dirigé la compagnie B du Royal Stratspace de la Reine, 114e Gorz, dans les rues bondées de Londres lors de la célébration du jubilé de diamant L'impératrice de la Reine. C'était un jour qu'il se souvenait toujours avec fierté, car sa compagnie représentait l'armée britannique en Inde. Cependant, lors de la célébration du Raj, la détresse n'a pas fait une pause ; Raja Drosha s'est rebellé et les pertes du bataillon ont été lourdes. Ogilvie a été chargé de retourner en Inde avec plus de recrues que d'habitude de l'entrepôt d'Invermore. Parmi eux, il y avait un gentleman ranker, un fugitif de la Garde, qui devait trouver sa passion pour le service actif, brutalement exécuté sur la rivière Chitral et dans le feu de sniper des passes entre Peshawar et Drosh. De retour dans les cantons, Ogilvie a découvert que son commandant voulait dire plus que les pertes du bataillon, bien qu'elles aient été. Son commandant en second, le major Brora, qui était intransigeant et non entretenu, est parti sans congé et aurait collaboré avec le raja rebelle. Calcutta a renoncé à Brora jusqu'à ce que l'on sache où il se trouvait.
A Matter for the Regiment: A Gripping Tale of War, Adventure, and Personal Evolution capitán James Ogilvie lideró la Compañía B de la Reina de Stratspace Real, 114.a Gorz, a través de multitudinarias calles Londres durante la celebración del jubileo de diamantes de la Emperatriz Reina. Fue un día que siempre recordó con orgullo, ya que su compañía representaba al ejército británico en la India. n embargo, la desgracia no hizo una pausa en la celebración de Raja; raja Drosha se rebeló y las bajas del batallón fueron pesadas. Ogilvy fue encargado de regresar a la India con un mayor número de reclutas de un depósito de regimientos en Invermore. Entre ellos se encontraba un caballero ranker, un fugitivo de la guardia que debía encontrar su ansia de servicio activo, realizado brutalmente río Chitral arriba y en el fuego de francotiradores de los pasos entre Peshawar y Drosh. De vuelta a los cantones, Ogilvy descubrió que su comandante tenía más en mente que las bajas del batallón, aunque lo eran. Su segundo comandante, el Major Lord Brora, irrumpido y sin poder, se marchó sin licencia y habría colaborado con el Rajá rebelde. Calcuta renunció a regañadientes a Brora hasta que se supo más de su paradero.
A Matter for the Regent: A Gripping Tale di War, Adventure, and Personal Evolution Il capitano James Ogilvy ha guidato la Compagnia B del proprio Royal Stratspace della Regina, 114 Montz, per le molteplici strade di Londra durante la celebrazione dell'anniversario di diamante di Impp Eratrie della Regina. Era un giorno che ricordava con orgoglio, perché la sua compagnia rappresentava l'esercito britannico in India. Ma durante la celebrazione di Raja, la miseria non fece una pausa; Radja Drocia si è ribellato e le perdite del battaglione sono state pesanti. Ogilvy è stato incaricato di tornare in India con più reclute del solito in un magazzino di Invermore. Tra questi c'era un ranker gentiluomo, un fuggitivo della guardia, che doveva trovare la sua passione per il servizio attivo, brutalmente eseguito lungo il fiume Chitral e nel fuoco di cecchini dei passaggi tra Peshawar e Drochem. Tornando ai cantoni, Ogilvy scoprì che il suo comandante intendeva più delle perdite del battaglione, anche se erano. Il suo secondo comandante, il maggiore Lord Brora, inferocito e disagiato, se n'è andato senza ferie e avrebbe collaborato con la Rama ribelle. Calcutta era riluttante a respingere Brora finché non si è saputo più dove fosse.
A Matter for the Regiment: A Gripping Tale of War, Adventure, and Personal Evolution Captain James Ogilvie führte die Kompanie B der Queen 's Own Royal Stratspace, die 114. Es war ein Tag, an den er sich immer mit Stolz erinnerte, als seine Kompanie die britische Armee in Indien vertrat. Bei den Raj-Feiern machte das Unglück jedoch keine Pause; Raja Drosha rebellierte und die Verluste des Bataillons waren schwer. Ogilvie wurde angewiesen, mit einer größeren Rekrutierung als üblich aus dem Regimentslager in Invermore nach Indien zurückzukehren. Unter ihnen war ein Gentleman Renker, ein Flüchtling aus der Garde, der sein Verlangen nach aktivem Dienst finden musste, brutal ausgeführt am Fluss Chitral und im Scharfschützenfeuer der Pässe zwischen Peshawar und Drosch. Als Ogilvie in die Kantone zurückkehrte, stellte er fest, dass sein Kommandeur mehr im nn hatte als die Verluste des Bataillons, obwohl sie es waren. Sein zweiter Kommandant, der jähzornige und hemmungslose Major Lord Brora, ging ohne Urlaub und soll mit dem rebellischen Raja zusammengearbeitet haben. Kalkutta verzichtete widerwillig auf Brora, bis mehr über seinen Verbleib bekannt wurde.

Alay İçin Bir Mesele: Savaş, Macera ve Kişisel Evrimin Sürükleyici Bir Hikayesi Kaptan James Ogilvy, Kraliçenin Kendi Kraliyet Strathspace'inin B Şirketini, 114. Highlander'ı, İmparatoriçe Kraliçe'nin elmas jübilesini kutlarken Londra'nın kalabalık sokaklarında yönetti. Şirketi Hindistan'daki İngiliz Ordusunu temsil ettiği için her zaman gururla hatırladığı bir gündü. Ancak, sorun Raj'ın kutlamaları için durmadı; Raja Drosha isyan etti ve taburun kayıpları ağırdı. Ogilvy, Invermore'daki alay deposundan normalden daha büyük bir asker alımıyla Hindistan'a dönmekle görevlendirildi. Bunların arasında, aktif hizmet için özlemini bulmak zorunda kalan Muhafızlardan bir kaçak olan bir beyefendi, Chitral Nehri'ni ve Peşaver ile Drosh arasındaki geçitlerin keskin nişancı ateşinde vahşice idam etti. Kantonlara geri dönen Ogilvy, komutanının taburun kayıplarından daha fazlasını ifade ettiğini fark etti. Emrindeki ikinci kişi, öfkeli ve inatçı Binbaşı Lord Brora, izinsiz gitti ve bildirildiğine göre isyancı Raja ile işbirliği yaptı. Calcutta, nerede olduğu daha fazla bilinene kadar isteksizce Brora'yı reddetti.
