Major Shabbir Sharif Shaheed (Nishan-e-Haider)

Major Shabir Sharif Shaheed
Born: 28th April, 1943, Kunjah Village, District of Gujrat
Commissioned: 1964, Frontier Force Regiment

Major Shabir Sharif as commander of 6 FF Regiment, was ordered in December 1971 to capture high ground near Sulemanki headwork defended by more than a company of the Assam Regiment supported by a squadron of tanks. In a well nigh super human action, for the next three days and nights after crossing a minefield and massive obstacles and killing forty three soldiers and destroying four tanks, Major Sharif and his men held two enemy battalions at bay. But after he took over an anti-tank gun from his gunner in an attack he was killed by a direct hit on the afternoon of 6th December. He was 28 years old.
