Death anniversary of Legendary Air Marshal Malik Nur Khan Awan [22 February 1923 – 15 December 2011]
AIr Marshal Malik Nur Khan Awan HJ, An ultimate Legendary C-in C, Icon, Leader & A Fearless Commander who led from the front.
Air Marshal Malik Nur Khan Awan, the man who led the Air Force achieve complete superiority over the three times bigger Indian air force on the very first day of the 1965 war, had all but resigned the post the very day that he took command of Pakistan Air Force on July 23, 1965.
The list of the great icons and legacies of Pakistan cannot be completed without the name of Air Marshal (Retd) Nur Khan. However, we Pakistanis lost this legendary icon on the December 15, 2011 when he left for his final resting place.
His services as a military man, especially during the 1965 Pakistan-India war, can never be forgotten as well as his services to raising the name of Pakistan at the international level in sports such as Squash, Hockey and Cricket and raising the status of PIA to the Best Airline in the world. He was a man of steel, a man of iron will who altered the course of everything of which he was given authority, in the positive direction.
