A story of brave Indian Soldiers and hallucinated foolish politicians. Brave were the men who fought , sacrificed themselves in the prime of their youth ......thousands of patriotic men funneled into Chinese hands just because of political leadership's ineptitude and hallucinations of being harbinger of world peace.....A MUST READ FOR EVERY INDIAN......Indian Army needed almost everything required for a war except COURAGE. --Harshdeep Singh Apr 13, 2013
