this describes the success
The success of Op KHUKRI was felt not merely in its tactical terms. It gave the RUF its worst defeat in recent history and at the same time gave a tremendous boost to the UNAMSIL forces in particular and to the UN as a whole. The detractors of the UN were silenced and the potential of this noble institution was once again displayed. The greatest reward for the Indian Peacekeepers was the rapturous reception given to them by the people of Daru as they came triumphantly back from battle. It was the welcome of a long suffering and desperate people who understood that there were people in this world who would shed their blood for them. Perhaps, that is why they helped build the KHUKRI Memorial in Daru barracks overlooking the Moa River.

Heres hoping this is the new standard camo for the IA.
The PARA (SF) have been playing around with lots of camos the last few years; MARPAT (woodland), the 10 PARA (SF)'s orangish camo (as seen above), UCP (also tested/seen with 10 PARA) as well as the standard IA camo.

I do agree that the Garud's digicam is perhaps the best looking of all of them and I would be very pleased to see it adopted across the entire Indian Mil with the UCP being used for naval ops (by MARCOs). It still baffles me how the IA doesn't have a desert camo to this day nor do they seem interested in one.

this has to be the most successful op. of paras.
That we know about ;)

That "kid" is a BD commando .. Old enough to be ...... .. And much more accomplished than some expat indian kid such as yourself.
Well you don't need just to reply every other post ,specially when in comes from a senior member. He doesn't mean to insult any nationality ,he just raised the question .A glass with I Pod headphone in shooting range is not common atleast in India army ranges.
