Last night, In Timesnow debate a Pak retd Brigadier stated that seven batallion of PA were involved in the incursions of which five were of NLI, one of Sindh regiment and one from Gilgit/Baltistan Scouts. Very few of these soldiers were able to make it back. This means that of the nearly 5600 soldiers who came inside India (considering that each Pak batallion had 800 troops) only one thousand odd made it back. The 435 killed as accepted by PA were its regular men as NLI and Scouts are Paramilitary troops as per Pak defence set up. He also disclosed that such heavy was the bombardment by IA that Pak troops ran out of food & ammo and cud not be resupplied in any manner. This matches the statements made by Nawaz Shariff that over 3500 Pak troops died during Kargil War.
Capt. Karnel sher of Sindh Regiment of PA, who fought valiantly against us on Tiger Hill and showed remarkable bravery, was disowned by PA as being a jihadi/Mujahidin. It was IA who than decided to write his commendation for bravery award that forced PA to accept his body and award him Nishan-e Haider or whatever they call it. he was the fourth such officer of PA whose commendation for a medal for outstanding valour was written by IA. This is the tradition of IA, we honour the Brave.
