Hi Cliff,

The following from the Bn History of 2 Para, erstwhile 10 Bombay Lt Infy, 'The Glory and the Price' by Lt Gen Mathew Thomas, p.38:
In early 1896 the regiment received orders for move to Aden and left Satara on 25 Nov. On arrival in aden detachments were sent out to Berbera, Zaila, Perim, and Shaikh Othman.
After the period of service in Aden, the Regt returned to India under the command of Lt Col WS Birdwood, in March 1900.

I hope this helps. Good luck with the book.
