In reply to Teagan R Geneviene. I try to provide as much information as I possibly can without boring the readers. For Rose of India, you always have me for background research. I know it will take time, but I would definitely love to read this one. Thanks for commenting and visiting the post, Teagan. Hugs.

Hi, Sharukh. This was an unexpected topic, and added fun because of that. I enjoyed the tour. Museums are such a nice diversion on a hot humid day, regardless of anything else. Your information would be useful to anyone writing historic fiction (or nonfiction). I’ll save this as a resource, in hope of getting back to “Rose of India.” I’ve been trying to finish up all my uncompleted books (there are so many!), but going with the oldest first… so there are still several ahead of Rose. Anyhow, have a brilliant weekend. Hugs.

Nice article felt more proud about Indian heritage and the warriors who sacrificed their lives to preserve it. The gallery in the article is indispensable which encourages me more to visit the museum in Pune.

In reply to P. A. Rudders. Paul, to be honest, when I was at the museum taking pictures and videos, I was actually thinking of you and Dan. I know you both love military museums and this is the first one I covered for my travel website. As a history person, I just loved it. In fact, this was the best part of my recent trip. Hence, I took time to sort the best images and write it in the best way I could. The second part will be comparatively shorter but should be done this week. Also, many thanks for sharing it with your FB group. Oh, I saw the 1917 movie and it was a phenomenal experience. Not sure if you watch Indian military movies, but if you are willing to give it a try watch 'URI' for sure. Thank you once again for reading, commenting and sharing this post.

First of all, I can’t thank you enough for highlighting this for me, Sharukh. What an amazing article, and filled with equally amazing pictures that perfectly complement the narrative. I must say, it’s a truly impressive museum. As a former Gunner in the British Royal Artillery, I particularly enjoyed and related to the opening, but equally, I read and enjoyed every word, and even leant a few things I didn’t know before relating to Indian military history. Obviously this will be of great interest to many Indians, but also to many British readers given the long and intertwined history and military, even more so given it topicality arising from the recently released ‘1917’ WW1 film.

Will certainly keep a lookout the ‘part two’ you mention in your reply to a previous comment.
Ps, although not specifically Gurkha related, I’ll be sharing this to a Gurkha fb group I’m in purely for the military interest.
