उत्तर

After regaining control at Tololing and Hump, we rested and recouped for a couple of weeks. The entire Battalion was in high spirits on being assigned the critical mission of capturing Tiger Hill. After a detailed probe of the region, the Commanding Officer of 41 Field Regiment drew up an elaborate artillery plan. On the day of the assault, a volley of weapons, along with support from the Air Force was used to bombard the target. At 1900 hours on 3rd July, we commenced the multidirectional assault. I was a part of the ‘D’ Company led by Captain Sachin Nimbalkar in the assault from the east. Using mountaineering equipment, we scaled steep escarpment under the cover of darkness and bad weather and caught the enemy by surprise. After some struggle, we occupied the eastern portion of the Area Collar that lay within 100 meters of the Tiger Hill Top. We then geared up for the final assault on 0400 hours on 4th July. Yet again we caught the enemy unawares and after a spell of hand-to-hand fighting, we had captured the objective. Our major concerns were holding on to our position and retaliation of the enemy’s counter attacks. We were constantly assured of support from the base. Once 8 Sikh captured the Helmet and India Gate, it became near-impossible for the enemy to win back the Hill. After neutralising all the counterattacks from the enemy, we informed the army chief of our accomplishment and hoisted the tricolour back on Tiger Hill.

The hundred-yard dash now reduced to a walk
And a banner above that said (Special Olympics)

They came to the finish line holding hands still
And a standing ovation and nine beaming faces
Said more than these words ever will.
