Description
The kit reproduces in detail the British colonial troops of the second half of the nineteenth
century and the "Sepoys", the Indian infantry troops employed under the British government.
The "Sepoys" were already recruited largely by the British East India Companies but they
gained notoriety when they were employed in the "British Indian Army". The uniforms of
the soldiers of our kit refers to the Second Anglo-Afghan War fought from 1878 and
ended with the Battle of Kandahar in 1880.
