    SALUTING OUR NATIONAL HEROES cont...

    Making the way through narrow valley




    The Leh-Batalik road is as notorious as the Srinagar-Kargil road. At its beginning lie staging areas, at its end fierce fighting and often, death. Jawans patrol the rugged slopes near Batalik. For them, there is little time for rest and little time to think, always poised on the edge of action.

    Capt.Vijayant Thapar (Robin)
    He Laid down for OUR BETTER TOMORROW
    At the age of only 22


    His Last Letter to his parents




    AND AFTER THAT
    HE CAME BACK HOME WITH TRI COLOR DRAPED



    Jawans from the 2nd Rajputana Rifles, remember their 23 comrades who fell in the decisive battle for the Toing Top. The battalion earned four Maha Vir Chakras, one of India 's highest medals for gallantry, three of them being awarded posthumously.



    Captain (Dr.) Rajshree Gupta, Army Medical Corps (AMC), salutes the tricolour-draped coffin of her husband, Major Vivek Gupta of the 2nd Rajputana Rifles, who died fighting the enemies.

            Several of our jawans are sacrificing their life, happiness and are making our Country safe and better place to live...

            I salute them for their work, who leave their families, happiness and everything to protect our nation..... We are proud of them
            Never regret a day in your life. Good days give you happiness; bad days give you experiences; both are essential to life-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

                      Thanks for sharing this great story. It was really touching-we tend to forget all these real heroes and go after nakli heroes.
                      Thanks
