A man immortalized through his sacrifice, Sqn Ldr Sarfaraz Ahmed Rafiqui has the honor of being amongst those rare breeds of men who keep inspiring thousands even after their death.

He was awarded the Hilal-i-Jur’at, as well as a Sitara-i-Jur’at for his services in the 65 war. His claim to glory is his decision to stay and defend his comrades even after his guns were jammed in a dogfight, a day after he had successfully taken down 4 IAF vampires with Flt Lt Imtiaz Bhatti.

His willing sacrifice not only spurred the morale of his then comrades; it continues to inspire young pilots and soldiers to this day. Read more in our article "Brave Heart Rafiqui" by Air Cdre (R) Kaiser Tufail.

Today we pay tribute to a brilliant and highly professional PAF officer. AVM Abdul Masood Khan, SJ, HI was a 1965 war veteran. Born on 20 November, 1933; he joined PAF in 1951 to be a pilot. On Graduation, he won the coveted Sword of Honour...

 

[ghazi52]

During the Indo-Pak War of 1971, Wg Cdr Masood was commanding No 35 Air Transport Wing at Chaklala. He once again led the Flying Wing with great zeal and enthusiasm. He, as a commander, groomed and prepared his aircrew to meet the challenges of war effectively. Consequently his pilots participated in numerous bombing campaigns and supply missions deep inside enemy territory. After the war, Masood got the prestigious command of PAF Base Chaklala (now PAF Base, Nur Khan).
