The CO and I were watching them come back as it became dark. We suddenly heard 'Allah ho Akbar, charge.' But trust the Gurkhas, they took out their khukris (knifes), turned around and shouted 'Ayo Gurkhali.' They fought like in a theatre.  Fan of Fab 5: Sachin, Rahul, Saurav, Laxman and Kumble. | ||

('Do you have blankets in your stores?') 'Haan Sahib('Yes, Sir').' So I said, 'Main aap ko receipt de doonga (I will give you a receipt), can you give kambals to my men?' 'Kambal nahin laye, saab? ('Sir, you have not brought blankets?')' 'Hum sone ke liye nahin aaye, aap ko barbaad karne ke liye aaye. (We did not come to sleep, but to destroy you.)' He digested that. Then I said, 'Agar kuch kambal rahe jaate hain, hamare affsar sahiba ko de sakte hain? ('If some blankets remain, can you give them to our officers?)' 'Kya baat karte hain saab, affsar sahiba bhi kambal nahin laye? ('What are you saying sir, even the officers do not have blankets?')' So I said, 'Saab, agar jawano ke paas kambal nahin hain, to afsar sahiba ke liye kambal kaise ho sakta hai? ('When the jawans do not have blankets, then how can the officers have them?).' He stood to attention, saluted me, and said, 'Janaab, agar hamari fauj mein Bharat jaise afsar hote, ye din humne dekhna tha ('Sir, if in our army we had officers like those in India, we would not have seen this day).'
