1897. India's North-West Frontier. The British had been relatively successful in subduing the Afghan tribes in this volatile region, but the normally independent Afridis and Orakzai, Pashtun tribes had joined forces, and their army of twenty-five thousand posed a severe threat. Saragarhi, a small outpost situated between two more prominent forts in the Samana Mountain region, was one of the first outposts to be attacked by the Pashtuns. Just twenty-one Sikh soldiers manned the outpost, but their small number managed to hold the outpost for six and half hours against overwhelming odds - precious time for reinforcements to arrive.
