The Death Of Lance Naik Bhau Savant At Mazera. In the military operations on the Tigris the British force advanced against Mazera, which was in the occupation of the Turks on December 7th 1914, and the enemy were driven across the river to Kurna. Lance Naik Bhau Savant, of the 110th Mahratta Light Infantry, was in command of the scouts, and in advancing under heavy fire he showed the garrison courage. He was always in the front, and when leading his men in the final bayonet charge at Mazera was most unfortunately shot through the heart. |
Jemadar Ram Karan leading his troop under heavy rifle fire against the enemy who were retiring. During the retirement of the Turkish forces at Mezera, Mesopotamia, on January 30th 1915, Jemadar Ram Karan, of the 33rd Queen Visitors Own Light Cavalry, led his troop over marshy ground against several groups of the enemys riflemen. The Jemadar and his men were fired on fro both front and flank, but he directed them with much skill under trying circumstances. For his conspicuous conduct, Jemadar Ram Karan was awarded the Indian Order of Merit. |
