1.Yesterday, 23 Sep a Cease-Fire was declared. This was a great disappointment in the battle-field. Soldiers had been primed to finish this at the Red Fort, Delhi. Similarly the people of Pakistan had been aroused to fight till a visible advantage had been gained.

2. Bakhtiar Rana, Musa and Ayub visited the troops at the FDLs and gave talks. Everywhere they were asked embarrassing questions. The reason for pulling out of Kashmir was questioned. The explaination that India had attacked Pak mainland unexpectedly, was not accepted by anyone.

the younger veterans would be in their 60's and the older in their 80's. some of them have passed away (like my father) and may not know much about the new technology this generation operates.

My father was an aeronautical engineer stationed in Karachi. He ran from military in terms of not giving an interview to PAF before emmigrating. He never compromised secrets of PAF, but they came to our village on several occasions since he did not leave the force based on protocol. After trying to apply for jobs in the United States Military, and other private companies, he led his life in a civilian status.

He is a Pakistani Patriot as well as being a loyal citizen of the States of America.

1 East Bengal Regt, the Senior Tigers, deployed around Lulliani blunted the major Indian assault on Lahore. When the War ended The Senior Tigers collected the maximum number of decorations that any unit received in the '65 War.
