Gunga Din was the Hindu water-carrier for a British Indian regiment. He was imortalised in the 1892 poem from Barrack-Room Ballads by Rudyard Kipling. The poem was the inspiration for the 1939 film 'Gunga Din' with Cary Grant, Victor McLaglen, Douglas Fairbanks Jr. and Sam Jaffe

The bit everyone remembers from the poem is: "You're a better man than I am, Gunga Din"
