I have been able to find some rare pictures and information relevant to my research from the following Facebook Pages:

Uzbek Pilgrims Join Ottoman army

Year 1915.
When a group of Uzbeks who traveled to the Holy Land to fulfill the Hajj heard the announcement of Ottoman Halifa “Jihad”, they climbed off the trains and joined the Ottoman forces. All the Uzbek Turks became “Martyrs” on the front-line.


These six pathans were recruited to protect the Afghan Mission, which was a collective of Indian, German and Ottoman military and diplomatic personnel sent to Kabul to try to convince Emir Habibullah of Afghanistan to join the Central Powers and rise up in a Jihad against the British in India.
