Remembering those ORs who endured the 5 month siege and were taken into captivity by the Turks at the fall of Kut, 29/4/16, and from which few emerged alive. I have names of 44 ORs of which only 8 seem to have survived. (I think this is the right total but is it the right list ?) Note that some attached men will also appear under their original unit. Work in progress: please advise me of any errors omissions or explanations needed.
