Indians Capture Summit
On Sunday, Indian ground forces troops captured the summit of Tololing
Peak, the first of the three peaks looming high over the abandoned town
of Dras and its important military base. After another night of
massive artillery bombardments and close-quarters fighting with
flame-throwers, Indian troops today closed in on the peak of a second
mountain overlooking India's northern highway, field commanders said.
Indian airstrikes on the guerrillas also continued. Indian paracommandos
also were dropped onto the strategic Marpola Heights west of Dras
looking over the guerrillas’ supply route, said the front-line officers.

Close quarters fighting using Flame Throwers and para dropping on
heights! These are feats which require immense courage!!
Come on Friends. Lets get those contributions going today.
