As a military achievement, this march of Lockhart's 2nd Division should have a prominent place in the history of the British army.
After a quiet day, the force marched into Swaikot.

Next morning the troops in camp there gathered on each side of the road, cheering their battle-grimed comrades, and bringing down hot cakes to them.
It was a depressing sight.

The men were all pinched and dishevelled, and bore on their faces marks of the terrible ordeal through which they had just passed.
The advance guard were followed by the wounded.

The 4th Brigade followed.

They were even more marked by hardship and strife than those who had preceded them.
