WORLD WAR 1 (1914-18) MYSORE LANCERS "HONOUR ROLL"


HONOUR ROLL  FOR  MYSORE LANCERS ( INCLUDING  JODHPUR, BHAVANAGAR AND KASHMIR  LANCERS IN THE GROUP)


“Honour Roll” is the listing of the names of those admired, respected for something they have done, may be like service, sports, examinations etc.,. But, most often in public places, the soldiers who gave their lives, in war, police action, peace keeping operations, are put in honour rolls, which fact is recorded and commemorated generally, in an engraved listing individually or in a group, in a memorial. It has names of all, from a soldier to a General, who lost their lives in fighting for their country. It mentions the gallantry awards he won etc.,.

Records in the Roll of Honour database contain the name, service number, unit and the date of death of each person. Some records may also contain cause of death, place of death, and cemetery or memorial details. Whoever makes a database, if by chance, misses entering a couple of names of warriors killed in action, it indirectly deprives those warriors, their positions in the Honour Roll. Misspellings of names, rank and service numbers are sometimes happening.
