With the aircraft too unstable for both to eject, Cdr Maurya decided to give a fair chance to his junior, Lt Cdr Rahul and stayed on in the aircraft to stabilize it for him to eject.
#ObituaryOfTheDay
3
Thanks to his senior's sacrifice, Lt Cdr Rahul did manage to eject, but it was too low & his parachute didn't deploy, killing him on impact.

Subedar Surinder Singh, Ashok Chakra (Posthumous), Third Battalion The Sikh Regiment
Martyred on night 03 / 04 March 2002, fighting like a 'Singh', true to his name.
#ObituaryOfTheDay
2
A veteran soldier, his moment of glory arrived that night near the Line of Control that day in Rajauri when he & his platoon observed a group of terrorists trying to infiltrate into the Motherland.
#ObituaryOfTheDay
3
The Khalsas of Gobind, led by Subedar Surinder, chose NOT to open fire so that they could be sure of dispatching EACH AND EVERY one of the Pakistani terrorists with surety.
#ObituaryOfTheDay
4
The ambush was sprung when the terrorists were barely a few metres away, with Subedar Surinder Singh himself firing the first shot, personally accounting for the first kill.
#ObituaryOfTheDay
5
Rest of the terrorists soon ran into the thick jungles in the area.
Undeterred, Subedar Surinder Singh quickly organised a search party and rushed after them.
#ObituaryOfTheDay
6
They soon came under fire from a terrorist hiding behind a boulder, no doubt giving cover to others trying to flee.
Not wasting any time, Sub Surinder deployed his team and himself crawled forward and dispatched that terrorist from extremely close quarters.
#ObituaryOfTheDay
7
Meanwhile four other terrorists had fled into a house in Village Tarala nearby and started pouring down heavy fire on Surinder Singh's platoon.
#ObituaryOfTheDay
8
Undeterred, Sub Surinder climbed on to the roof of the house and blew up part of it using explosive charges before hurling a grenade inside and opening deadly fire on the terrorists within.
#ObituaryOfTheDay
9
As he was retreating from this vulnerable position, the terrorists too hurled a grenade at him, severely injuring him with splinters at multiple parts of his body.
#ObituaryOfTheDay
10
Sub Surinder Singh, however, chose to continue fighting till the job was completed, personally accounting for 2 more terrorists.
This fearless Khalsa ultimately breathed his last only when all terrorists had been dispatched, four of them personally by himself
#ObituaryOfTheDay
11/11
One can only imagine which party was the terrorized one that night - the Paki 'terrorists', or these Khalsas led by Subedar Surinder Singh!
The martyr was awarded a richly deserved Ashok Chakra on Republic Day 2003.

#ObituaryOfTheDay
Maj Mohit Sharma, Ashok Chakra (P)
Fell on 21 Mar 2009 in the infamous Hafruda Forest near Kupwara
2
#ObituaryOfTheDay
A dashing young man, a gifted musician, and above all, a true leader of men.
He chose to stay on to complete the job at hand, instead of being evacuated due to life threatening gunshot wounds.
He carried on, receiving a final, fatal round in his chest.
3
#ObituaryOfTheDay
By the time the guns fell silent, his team had accounted for 17 terrorists in the notorious Haphruda Forest near Handwara. He himself, despite being fatally wounded charged and took another two terrorists in his last charge.
4
#ObituaryOfTheDay
His enraged paratroopers accounted for all that were still breathing.
A grateful nation awarded him the Ashok Chakra, which was received by his wife, Maj Rishma Sharma.
5
#ObituaryOfTheDay
Here is Maj Mohit Sharma, as comfortable with the guitar, as he would have been with an AK-47
6
#ObituaryOfTheDay
Here's another video of him playing the guitar. Listen to his music. But also NOTICE the way officers of the Indian Army live - spartan lodgings with bare minimum furniture and a structure that has been made by the lowest bidder.
7
#ObituaryOfTheDay
Yes, these are as 'palatial' as they can get, filled with love and laughter of comrades who'll happily kill, or die for each other.
And dare I say, none in this entire nation can match that.
8
#ObituaryOfTheDay
And then there are some in the same government who'd rather consider their work conditions 'easy' because they don't have to "meet their fellow countrymen" while doing their jobs!
I guess 'misguided' Kashmiri youth don't count as fellow countrymen for them!
9
#ObituaryOfTheDay
Yes, they live a charmed existence, no doubt.
In conditions far worse, materially, yet far far better overall than cushy Delhi offices of the bureaucracy that smirks at them.
10
#ObituaryOfTheDay
Because they have brothers who'll die for them & vice versa. They serve uncomplainingly.
For you and me and even those that mock them..
11/11
#ObituaryOfTheDay
This nation will remain the nation of the free, as long as such brave men walk on its soil.
God bless him and his brothers in arms who fell this day, fighting for you and me.
