Having had the previlage of seeing you in person during 1971 war,your departure saddens me and soldiers like me immencely.For us Sir, you were an inspiration,a fatherly figure and a model to look up to.There is a feeling that you have not been honoured in your death,but SIR, YOUR PLACE IS IN THE HEART OF THOUSAND OF OLD SOLDIERS and countrymen.WE CANNOT FORGET YOU AND WISH, GOD SENDS US AFTER OUR LIFE HERE, TO WHERE YOU RESIDE NOW SO THAT WE ARE AGAIN INSPIRED TO DO SOMETHING FOR OUR COUNTRY IN NEXT BIRTH TO MAKE INDIANS FACE OTHERS WITH CHEST UP AND PRIDE IN THEIR HEART.
