''Camel Corps''
The Camel Corps was formed at Lucknow on 5 April 1858 from drafts of 100 men each from the 2nd and 3rd Battalion, The Rifle Brigade, to which were eventually added 200 Sikhs. The Camel Corps was used in 1858 and 1859 to support columns of soldiers despatched during the latter stages of the [[Indian Mutiny]] to hunt down groups of rebels that had fled into the countryside of Rohilkund and Oudh, east of Delhi., and was disbanded on 1 June 1860.
