My Best Friend and Classmate Capt. Akash Rabbani Is Shaheed

[Umair Nawaz]

Bullet vest saved him initially,, Alas if he was wearing kevlar helmet, we wouldn't had to lost a precious life.

A word of caution to CO's , never let your commando go in desert hat for clearing Ops. A sniper will always be waiting for him

he was hit in chest the Bullet vest cant do much against 12.7mm sniper look at his body closely on chest.

The best way to pay homage to these sacrifices is to ensure that the purpose for which they fought is brought to realization - to eliminate the scourge of terrorism from Pakistan.

Capt. Akash Rabbani of SSG and one of my best friends, classmate, hostel mate and room mate has been Martyred at 6:30 in the evening yesterday in Operation Zarb e Azb in North Waziristan while fighting Taliban

I just came to know now abt him now and leaving for Abbottabad!

He was also a Member of Defence.pk's facebook page and i was asking him continuously to join the forum and he said he will join it after he returns.

A chat that i had with him some Years ago.........



My dear friend had said in the end of the chat when i asked abt when he will be promoted to Captain he said '' It will take him 1 year and 6 months to be Captain if life remains, otherwise love to die''

His wish has been accepted. My Bro is not anymore.

Keeping a fast(or not).. the current heat is not very accommodating to any armour.

Inna lillahi wa inna elehi rajion

His sacrifice is a constant reminder to those thinking of harming Pakistan that the sons of the soil are awake and would not back down from laying their lives to protect the mother land.

May Allah grant him peace and a place in Janat. Ameen

R.I.P. Condolences to friends and family of the brave soldier.

 

[Ghareeb_Da_Baal]

He is now more alive than any of us and there can be no consolation greater than that!
Most def. a behisti !

I dont know what armor can protect against a 12.7 round
none exists but an experimental one called dragon skin which would be off limits to us

12.7 is 50 cal round,, (either .50 Bmg, or the russian 12.7x108 mm) I dont think any armor vest exist to stand up to that.

What a beautiful, brave and courageous young man this nation has lost. Allah shaheed kay darajat buland fermaye. Uske Ghar walon ko sabar o Jameel Ata fermaye. Ameen. Its an honor to be a shaheed in the Holy month of Ramazan.
