#Reliving1971 #NavalArchives Today, in the run up to #VijayDiwas, #WeRemember how the #Victoryof1971 was a stellar example of synchronised effort and #Jointmanship among the three Services. Four #IndianAirForce Hunter aircraft destroying an entire Pakistani armoured regiment in Longewala, #IndianArmy soldiers celebrating atop captured Pakistani Patton tanks in the aftermath of the Battle of Basantar, or #IndianNavy ships pounding Karachi harbour not once but twice, makes it seem so easy! Alas! It required the highest levels of professionalism, conviction and strategic planning. Today, we share a rare photo of the three #CINCs Vice Admiral N Krishnan, Lieutenant General JS Aurora, and Air Marshal HC Dewan onboard INS Vikrant on 28 December 1971.
