Generally, both claim it. Its an honor for both. Like if you do something good, then your parents, your teachers and friends all feel honored.

Yes that is if you've been attached to another unit from parent, for instance Captain Karnal Sher Khan was from Sind Regt and volunteered for NLI regt during KoP. However in case of SSG you are assigned from your parent units and spend limited tenure in the force.

For example, if an officer joins SSG from AK Regt, and after a certain tenure he reverts back. Then he takes part in an action with his parent unit and is awarded SJ. Will both add it in their tally?

Or if he is posted to FC KP from parent unit and is awarded SBt with it. Will all three add his award in their tally?

Yes, they all will. Its something normal. One of my unit's SJ is claimed by another unit as well. We claim it since he was commissioned in us, the other unit claims because he attained shahadat being part of them.

Capt Bilal Zafar, SSG. His parent unit and Cdo unit both include him in their honors.

Interesting because Mitha, the first commander of the SSG, went on to be awarded HJ, but the SSG only includes the HJ of Capt Iqbal in it's tally.

Its because, after 1971, Gen Mitha was stripped of all his medals and honors, thats why.

It was Bhutto who destroyed this Hero Mitha's career sadly.

Thanks for the replies. I was reviewing an SSG documentary which stated that the Group had got 72 operational gallantry awards (HJ,SJs,TJs) hence was wondering if these were all earned by serving men or included those who had reverted.

Yes there was a meeting. Probably involved discussion on both the Eastern & Western fronts. Today COAS met Amb Khalilzad & Gen Miller. So that may explain the meeting held last night.
