Maharaja of Patiala visits the Western Front

  The turbaned guys are not soldiers. One of them is His Highness, Maharajah Bhupinder Singh of Patiala State, Punjab in India and the other one must be his General. They offered their help to the British during the World Wars and sent their men to fight along with the British armies.
