Courageous Captain Group Captain Chandan Singh

Period : 1971 Indo Pak War

During the 1971 Indo-Pak war, Group Captain Chandan Singh was in command of an air force station on the eastern front. He had to coordinate and oversee operations involving the airlifting of commando troops to forward areas.

On 8 December he was asked to airdrop 3000 troops and 40 tons of army equipment into a heavily defended enemy area. The reconnaissance missions he has led to the area, prior to the operation, helped him plan his action to the detail and carry it out successfully.

As the war progressed he led over 18 such missions deep into the enemy territory. There were several occasions when his aircraft was hit. His airborne operations played a crucial role in the Indian army's successful advance to Chaka and its subsequent capture.

Group Captain Singh was decorated with the Mahavir Chakra for his courage and inspiring leadership.
