---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Women are made to be loved, not to be understood - Oscar Wilde ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 'Mission accomplished, Sir' were this real hero's last words Friday 2 January 2004 when the whole India was still coming out of the hang-over of New Year Bash a Young Indian Army officer's heroics went unnoticed. Unlike Screen heroes, army officer Lieutenant Triveni Singh played the "real hero" at the Jammu railway station as he gunned down the militants in a virtual one-to-one battle on Friday night before laying down his life. Reaching the spot within 10 minutes of the attack, Singh and his quick reaction team of "Ghatak commando's" cordoned off the station and employed "zigzag methodology" to come at a close range of the militants. Risking his life, Lt. Triveni Singh faced indiscriminate firing and lobbing of grenades and succeeded in killing one of the militants to take charge of the "uncontrollable" situation.The second militant, dressed in a combat dress, while trying to escape threw a grenade at Singh but the seriously injured officer stood up and killed him. "Mission Accomplished," Singh said and saluted the GOC before he laid down his life. Mission accomplished but life shattered at Home in Pathankot where his father Capt. Janmej Singh (retd) and his ever loving mother was busy planning for there only son's marriage due in March 2004. The agony of loosing their Brave son can not be explained or shared with. In this small world were we have lost a brother fighting bravely for the safety of the common people. I'm forwarding this mail as a Tribute to Late Lieutenant Triveni Singh, let us not let his sacrifice go unnoticed. Thank you for taking time to read this. Jai Hind !! - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - pravin walunjkar. __________________________________________ Disclaimer: This e-mail may contain Privileged/Confidential information and is intended only for the individual(s) named.
