0096 Toy Soldiers Set British Royal Artillery, Mountain Battery

An officer, A Sergeant and six Privates with Pack mules carrying Gun Trail, Gun, Wheels and Supplies.

Throughout their history, the reputation of Indian Mountain Batteries was enhanced by the fact that they were officered by the very best the Royal Artillery had to offer. Such talented men competed to join because a tour in an Indian Mountain Battery, unlike other branches of artillery, virtually guaranteed seeing active service.

Indian officers (VCO's) and other ranks were also the best available, as the relatively small number of batteries and their role as the only Indian artillery meant that there was always a surplus of volunteers, and this in turn meant that only the highest quality of recruit was accepted.

Although light in calibre, the guns of Mountain Batteries were designed to be disassembled and transported by pack mule in up to eight loads for use in terrain that would otherwise be impossible to traverse with larger and more conventional artillery.Read moreabout the British Royal Artillery, Mountain Battery in our Magazine Tradition No. 48, 49 and 51.
