Lilly Dale The 51st Sikhs (Frontier Force) was an infantry regiment of the British Indian Army.

In 1947, it was allocated to the Pakistan Army, where it continues to exist as 3 Battalion The Frontier Force Regiment.

Their mission was to maintain order on the Punjab Frontier; a task they performed with great aplomb.

[1][2] Subsequent to the reforms brought about in the Indian Army by Lord Kitchener in 1903, the regiment's designation was changed to 51st Sikhs (Frontier Force).

In 1914, the regiment's class composition was four companies of Sikhs, two of Pathans, and one each of Punjabi Muslims and Dogras.

During the Second World War, 1 FF saw active service in Iraq and Syria before moving in 1943 to Italy, where it again served with distinction.
