September 12th 1897, twenty one soldiers of the 36th Sikh Regiment, including their commander Havildar Ishar Singh faced impossible odds. Over ten thousand Pathan and Afghan Tribesmen advanced on their signaling post of Saragarhi, located in the North West Frontier province of undivided British India.
