Books and materials thread. You know that thread has actual books in it right? Like there are PDF in there and its not just a recommend thread. It is meant to share as much notes and knowledge as one can
Yeah its a good book. Got a deal a while back at about 500 PKR.. It basically covers in...
Yeah. A great book to get a basic understanding of Pakistans Relationship with it's military and the US and the military relationship with the US. I think i uploaded it here, if i remember correctly
Quite frankly it should be similar to how US receives allied nations military leaders. If its too extravagant then it would be awkward for both the US and Pakistan. He is not the head of state like military dictators. Anything above the norm is basically US announcing that it is no longer...
Hmm TBH there is no major source. Tell you what. I will write down everything East bengal regiment did in the war and post it here. Just give me some time. :D
I think India in the south captured Chad Bet as well. At that time, they were small island points and indian paracommandos had captured it. I think we got that back as well.
Well ofcourse if you have access to maps, then its all good. Its actually easy as well to understand.
I have some of captured territory but nothing too detailed like you know those war encyclopedia are. The Chhamb book has alot of maps but it is solely for chhamb.
by the way the Akhnur Dagger was returned because it was not along the LOC. Only territories along the LOC were to be kept as occupied Like india got Turtuk and Kargil areas whereas we got Chhamb which is fair enough but the rest were to be given back so we got the Shakargarh salient back and...
Nobody is ever happy
fazilka sector is prone to alot of stories and tales of What-If. Its a very controversial issue because despite the success, further thrust were unable to be made because 2nd Corp saw alot of their main attack force being diverted and jaisalmar is where you have longewala...
Wait you didnt hear about the operations in the Phulkian Sector aka the Akhnur Dagger capture and the shakargarh salient?
India captured the "Chicken Neck" as the Chhamb sector started to fall apart..
""Armour available to 10 Division was not properly employed. The inherent flexibility and...
the 111 brigade failures with the withdrawl issue are mentioned on multiple sources. Agha amin was convinced that they should have all been court martialed. I may write something on it later on. Much later on
yep. If there was ever a conflict that needed to be reviewed extensively then it was the 1971 war and kargil war and if anybody review it and wrote about it then they made sure it wouldnt leave the boundaries of NDU
Afghan Hazara refugees live in fear of being deported by Pakistan
n the shaky mobile phone footage, women's voices can be heard panicking. The camera moves in and out of focus, positioned through a crack in a door frame.
Across the yard, Pakistani police are outside a property, looking for...
‘What’s wrong?’: The silence of Pakistanis on expulsion of Afghan refugees
Islamabad, Pakistan – They were a common sight across major Pakistani cities, performing low-paying wage work – loading goods at markets, pushing carts on streets to sell fruits and vegetables, or picking trash.
But...

In india? In Pakistan this book is expensive as well. 8K. Thats alot of cash especially for a guy that doesnt really pay for books if you know what i mean.
For example
"2nd armoured brigade group was tasked to capture Chhamb on 7th December. Without any information of enemy defences surrounding the town of chhamb, the armoured brigade group, with 28 cavalry and two companies of the 23 baloch attacked and secured chhamb by 0900 hours on 7th...
Oh no its not that. That doesnt mention 1971 at all. Its different works from other writers. Steeds of war, battle of chhamb 1971 is a good start., I dont think that book is available outside pakistan
Ehhh yeah i have read and have a very detailed book about the account. It points out to the faults in the attack at the sector and how pakistan failed to take advantage of times where indian positions were weakened. I also found this exchange and the akhnur dagger exchange which wasnt across the...
One has to consider something to be a mistake to learn from it. The Army has never seen bangladesh as their mistake. Not from an institutional point of view. Often the blame was diverted to politicians, nationalities, bureaucracy and retired individuals. Never the institution
