107th Pioneers

The 107th Pioneers were an infantry regiment of the British Indian Army.

Their origin can be traced back to 1788, when they were raised as the 4th Battalion, Bombay Sepoys.

Their next action was at Beni Boo Ali against pirates in Eastern Arabia and the Persian Gulf region led the East India Company to carry out a punitive expedition in 1819 to Ras al Khaimah which destroyed the pirate base and removed the threat from the Persian Gulf.

They were also part of the forces involved in the annexation of Burma in the Second Burmese War.
