This is the tenth episode of a blog series we are featuring on the famous battle of Chambb of the 1971 War, as narrated by veterans of the 5th Battalion, the Sikh Regiment, one of the participant units in the battle. Continuing with the narrative of 2/Lieutenant Y S Rana.]

Late evening, 4th December: A thudding Pak salvo was petering out, the tremors gradually becoming more distant. The falling shells hopped deeper and deeper into our rear areas. The evening star came out pure and silver-washed, brighter than the moon that looked muddy with a hue of saffron. Invisible booming shells flew in the night, like a migration of deadly rodents on aerial highways. The darkness was being whipped by boomers of echoes as artillery duels see-sawed.


A pall of dust hung in the air like flour suspended densely in a village flour mill. I looked around for the canvas chagal that Baldev left hanging on a nail in the bunker. The white enamel mug stood on my black IMA trunk, the alphabets neatly painted recently, 2/Lt YS Rana, 5 Sikh. I thought my trunk was making a good companionable start with me. After the war it deserved a medal. The mug was silted with sand. I started scraping the sand with my fingers when I heard footsteps. It was Baldev.


I told the MMG crew to cover us and keep a sharp lookout. Harassing my men who were resting to no end, I took out two of them for our mission. The four of us set out to check whether the enemy had begun breaching the minefield in front of our positions.


Baldev, indeed, was also the bomber of the section. He was in a ferocious, quixotic temper. I told him to go ahead and make the enemy pay dearly. He went to his trench where he kept his boxes of grenades. After sometime I thought I would check how the singlehanded destruction of Pak army by our redoubtable Baldev was going on.


I could immediately grasp that excited and in the dark, he had probably not aligned the discharge cap properly and tightened it fully. He must have fired the grenade with the discharge cap loose, and it could have got blown off with the grenade.


I pushed off to my bunker. The boys on the roof were lying behind the LMG, the square magazine on top of the gun silhouetted against the murky darkness under the reflection of a labouring moon. I poured some water in the mug from the chaggal and drank it without bothering to check whether it was clean or muddy. My mouth tasted of the Chambb sand. I sat on the ground and eased my weary legs that felt heavy.
