== The Guides ==
The object of this corps, composed of horse cavalry and foot soldiers, was to provide trustworthy men to act as guides to troops in the field, and also to collect intelligence beyond as well as within the North-West Frontier of India. The regiment was located at Mardan on the Peshawar border and became one of the most famous in the Indian army. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harry_Burnett_Lumsden Wikipedia]
