They could trace their origins to 1858, when they were raised as the Agra Levy. The regiment took part in the Siege of Malakand in 1897.[1] To honour the visit of the Prince and Princess of Wales to Indian they took part in the Rawalpindi Parade 1905. In August 1914 the regiment, then comprising eight companies of Dogras, was stationed at Malakand on the North West Frontier. The 38th Dogras remained in India until late 1917, when it was posted to Aden and then to Suez. The regiment saw active service against the Ottoman Turks at the Battle of Megiddo in September 1918. It remained in Egypt performing garrison duties through 1920. After World War I the Indian government reformed the army moving from single battalion regiments to multi battalion regiments.[2] In 1922, the 38th Dogras became the 2nd Battalion, 17th Dogra Regiment. In 1947, the regiment was allocated to the new Indian Army on independence. Predecessor names
