I don’t need your approval on my sources. Thank you very much.Like i said. Find and talk to a veteran. Talk to a bunch - Books written by Army officers have to be vetted by HQ and okay'd.
Nope. They didn’t eject Indian forces from there. They reoccupied with the IPKF vacated. Totally different there buddy.The Goal was to take Jaffna. We took the penninsula in 3 weeks. That was it. We laboured struggling to stay above water for 2 years.
The LTTE in the end managed to retake Jafna with withdrawing Indian Forces and then they killed the PM of India.
Will stick to reading actual literature instead of going off of a bunch of dude trust me. I can’t verify your convos, hence, you probably even overexxagarate what they said just to demean the armed forces some more.0Talk to some vets.
We won in 67. Your point?No it isnt. You are forgetting 62 and 68. Its always been there - sleeping. So we slept too.
You think soldiers enjoy fighting? Name me one conflict in which any army did not suffer.Sorry - i cant get behind thise Blind Brainwashing and chest thumping. our Troops SUFFERED through Kargil. The Mil bras and Civilian leadership imposed Risk averse ROEs. Our Troops geared for COIN under RR didnt have the equipment or suuplies or logistics to fight the battle. Brute Force and sheer willpower of the Grunt and innovation from the GROUND saw us through. The issues in manegment were again there when we did the mobilization post the parliament attacks. Suggest reading the Kargil Commision report as well. and AGAIN talk to Vets who were Captains / Majors during this confrontation.
For what its worth i went to alot of funerals during and post Kargil has a young adult. the conversations around me made me see the reality of the suck differently. Thats all. Take it for what its worth
