What drove a young man with a full life to sacrifice it all for his nation? Why did battle-hardened soldiers revere this young man, following him into peril, or even death? A loving son to a doting mother, a loyal friend to fellow officers, a trusted comrade to his brave soldiers, and a fearless warrior against his enemy. Built from true accounts, here is an authentic life story of Major Sudhir Walia of 9 Para (SF). From leading an attack on Zulu Top in the Kargil war, to operations against terrorists in the Kashmir valley, this book charts the journey of this maverick Special Forces Officer. Twice decorated with the Sena Medal, Major Sudhir Walia was killed in action while leading an audacious raid against foreign militants. He was posthumously awarded India’s highest peacetime gallantry award – the Ashok Chakra. Nicknamed Rambo for his daredevilry, read on to find what it takes to forge a hero whose legacy and raw courage inspire men even today.
