General Sir Frank Walter Messervy, KCSI KBE CB DSO* (1893–1974), was a British Indian Army officer in both the First and Second World Wars. He bows his head to the Valor of the Sikh Soldiers in the World Wars. He duly respected their Turbans which gave them the Courage & strength to fight as Warriors. Finally we that live on can never forget those comrades who, in giving their lives gave so much that is great to the story of the Sikh Regiment. No living glory can transcend that of their supreme sacrifice. May they rest in peace In the last two World Wars 83.005 turban wearing Sikh soldiers were killed and 109.045 were wounded they all died or were wounded for the freedom of Britain and the World, enduring shell fire with no other protection but the turban. the symbol of their faith -General Sir Frank Messervy, K.C.S.I., K.B.E., C.B., D.S.O.
