#Remembering1971 Battle of Hilli in Eastern Sector.

#LestWeForgetndia🇮🇳 the supreme sacrifice of L/Nk Albert Ekka, #ParamVirChakra (P), 14 GUARDS and his exceptional gallantry #OnThisDay 03 Dec 1971

The #BravestOfTheBrave paved the groundwork for victory at Gangasagar Image
Lance Naik Albert Ekka was in the left forward company of a battalion of the Brigade of Guards during their attack on the enemy defences at #Gangasagar on the Eastern Sector. This was a well-fortified position held in strength by the enemy.
The assaulting troops were subjected to intense shelling and heavy small-arms fire, but they charged onto the objective and were locked in bitter hand-to-hand combat. L/Nk Ekka noticed an enemy light machine-gun (LMG) inflicting heavy casualties on his company.
