as my uncle major general agha manzur rauf recollected (BM in sialkot in 1965) and commanding an engineer battalion in sialkot in 1971 --"IT WAS A MOST STUPID IDEA TO PUT AN R AND S COMPANY TO HOLD A FRONTAGE ALMOST AS LARGE AS AN INFANTRY BATTALION IN A CRUCIAL GAP BETWEEN TWO INFANTRY BATTALIONS" .It was criminal tactically to deploy an R and S company to hold such an important gap.
