Kyt has lent me a book on the Indian Army , A Roll Of Honour by Maj-Gen Elliott. Has a short passage regards Lend-Lease convoys from Iran into Russia.
Hope it's not too blurred.
I'm impressed by the totals.
Number of lorry loads 11 739.
42 840 tons of supplies to Russia.
Total miles covered by RIASC drivers, 18 000 000.
A couple of Indians were even awarded Soviet Decorations.
