    Brigadier Kuldip Singh Chandpuri MVC, VSM (22 November 1940 - 17 November 2018) was a decorated Indian Army officer. He is known for his leadership in the Battle of Longewala during the Indo-Pakistani War of 1971, for which he was awarded the Maha Vir Chakra, the second-highest Indian military decoration, by the Indian government. The 1997 Hindi film Border was based on the battle, with his role played by Sunny Deol. He was a councilor in the Chandigarh Municipal Corporation from 2006 to 2011.

    British media reported on the defence of Longewala; James Hatter compared the Battle of Longewala to Battle of Thermopylae in his article Taking on the enemy at Longewala, describing it as the deciding moment of the 1971 war.[34] Similarly, Field Marshal R. M. Carver, the British Chief of the Imperial General Staff, visited Longewala a few weeks after the war to learn the details of the battle from Chandpuri.

    Emotions are the key elements of any typical Bollywood movies. All flashbacks in this movie have created emotions for their characters. Director has tried to show the emotions of their family, after them situations, and what sacrifices they have done.
    If you really wants to keep react on Bollywood stuff then you need to have patience and bring some emotions out of you.

    During the night of the 4th, Dharam Veer's platoon, while on a patrol, detected noises across the border that suggested a large number of armoured vehicles approaching.[24] These were soon confirmed by reports-from the Army's air observation post aircraft flown by Major Atma Singh-in the area of a 20-kilometre-long (12 mi) armoured column on the track leading to the post advancing in the general direction of the Longewala post.[25] Directing Dharam Veer Bhakri's patrol to trail the advancing armoured column, Chandpuri contacted battalion headquarters, requesting urgent reinforcements and armour and artillery support. Battalion headquarters gave him the choice of staying put and containing the attack as much as possible, or carrying out a tactical retreat to Ramgarh, as reinforcements would not be available that night. Despite his command having all the transportation to retreat back on time, he chose to stay and fight back the advancing enemy.[26]
    The Pakistani forces began their attack at 12:30 am.[27] As the offensive approached the lone outpost, Pakistani artillery opened up across the border with medium artillery, killing five of the ten camels from the BSF detachment. As the column of 45 tanks neared the post, Indian defences, lacking the time to lay a prepared minefield, laid a hasty anti-tank minefield as the enemy advanced, one infantryman being killed in the process.[28][29] The Indian infantry held their fire until the leading Pakistani tanks had approached to within 15-30 metres (49-98 ft) before firing their PIATs.[29][failed verification] They accounted for the first two tanks on the track with their Jonga-mounted 106 mm M40 recoilless rifle, with one of its crew being killed during the engagement.[29][failed verification] This weapon proved quite effective because it was able to engage the thinner top armour of the Pakistani tanks from its elevated position, firing at often stationary, bogged-down vehicles.[29][failed verification]
    In all, the post defenders claimed 12 tanks destroyed or damaged. The initial Pakistani attack stalled almost immediately when the infantry discovered the barbed wire which had not been spotted in the night, and interpreted it as signifying a minefield. Firing for the Indian RCL crews was made easier by the flames of fires when the spare fuel tanks on the Pakistani tanks, intended to supplement their internal capacity for the advance to Jaisalmer, exploded, providing ample light for Indians located on higher ground, and creating a dense, acrid smoke screen at ground level for the Pakistani infantry, adding to the confusion. Two hours were lost as Pakistani sappers were brought up, only to discover there was no minefield. However, at this time, Pakistani infantry were required to make another attack, from a different direction, but in the dawn light. The Pakistani advance then attempted to surround the post two hours later by vehicles getting off the road, but many vehicles, particularly armoured personnel carriers and tanks, in trying to soften up the Indian defenders before attacking, became bogged down in the soft sand of the area surrounding the post. Throughout the engagement, Chandpuri continued to direct the supporting artillery fire.[29]
    Although massively outnumbering the Indian defenders and having surrounded them, the Pakistani troops were unable to advance over open terrain on a full-moon night, under small arms and mortar fire from the outpost.[27] This encouraged the Indians not to give up their strong defensive position, frustrating the Pakistani commanders. As dawn arrived, the Pakistan forces had still not taken the post, and were now faced with doing so in full daylight.[12]
    In the morning, the Indian Air Force (IAF) was finally able to direct some HAL HF-24 Maruts and Hawker Hunter aircraft to assist the post; they were not outfitted with night-vision equipment, and so had to wait until dawn.[30] With daylight, however, the IAF was able to operate effectively, with the strike aircraft being guided to targets by the airborne Forward Air Controller (FAC), Singh, in a HAL Krishak.[31] The Indian aircraft attacked the Pakistani ground troops with 16 Matra T-10 rockets and 30 mm ADEN cannons on each aircraft. Without support from the Pakistan Air Force, which was busy elsewhere, the tanks and other armoured vehicles were easy targets for the IAF's Hunters. The range of the 12.7 mm anti-aircraft heavy machine guns mounted on the tanks was limited and therefore ineffective against the Indian jets. Indian air attacks were made easier by the barren terrain. Many IAF officers later described the attack as a "turkey shoot", signifying the lopsidedness.[12]
    By noon the next day, the assault had ended completely, having cost Pakistan 36 tanks 22 of which were destroyed by aircraft fire, 12 by ground anti-tank fire, and 2 captured after being abandoned, with a total of around 100 vehicles destroyed or damaged in the desert around the post. The Pakistani forces were forced to withdraw when Indian tanks from the division's cavalry regiment, the 20th Lancers, commanded by Colonel Bawa Guruvachan Singh, along with the 17th Battalion, Rajputana Rifles, launched their counter-offensive to end the six-hour engagement.[29] Longewala had proved to be one of the defining moments in the war.

    Battle of Longewala
    Kuldip Singh Chandpuri was a major in 23 Punjab when the Pakistan Army attacked the Longewala post in Rajasthan, India, early in the Indo-Pakistani War of 1971. Chandpuri and his company of 120 soldiers defended the post, despite considerable odds, against the 2000-3000 strong assault force of the Pakistani 51st Infantry Brigade, backed by the 22nd Armored Regiment. Chandpuri and his company held the Pakistanis at bay for a full night until the Indian Air Force arrived to provide air support in the morning.
    Chandpuri inspired his men, moving from bunker to bunker, encouraging them to beat back the enemy until reinforcements arrived. Chandpuri and his men inflicted heavy casualties on the enemy and forced them to retreat, leaving behind twelve tanks. For his conspicuous gallantry and leadership, Chandpuri was awarded the Maha Vir Chakra (MVC) by the government of India.
    Chandpuri retired from the army as a brigadier.

    In 1963, Chandpuri was commissioned from the Officers Training Academy, Chennai into the 3rd battalion, Punjab Regiment (3rd Punjab), which is one of the oldest and one of the most highly decorated regiments of the Indian Army. He took part in the Indo-Pakistani War of 1965 in the western sector. After the war, he served in the United Nations Emergency Force (UNEF) in Gaza (Egypt) for a year. He also served twice as an instructor at the prestigious Infantry School in Mhow, Madhya Pradesh.

      @death_parade 6 місяців тому +3

      Woah, wait, I had no idea about this, you just said he was commissioned in 1963. Does that mean that Brigadier Chandpuri entered the Army in the Emergency Commission? After we lost the war with China in 1962, they doubled the size of the Indian Army in just a three year span by 1965 (the year Pakistan attacked). That doubling was only possible because of the Emergency Commission.

      Kudos for watching an old movie. Something other UA-camrs don't. Just a heads up, Indian movies are not so good with action sequences lol If you are going ahead Highly Highly recommend - 1. "The Ghazi attack". One of the most under rated movies, then - 2 - "Lakshya" 3 - "Uri" . People recommending LOC Kargil - I would say the same thing its highly contextual but too bad in action. Perhaps try 4. "Tango Charlie" - not so good in action but amazing military insight.

    The incidence regarding Tanot Mata temple is true , during the two Indo - Pak wars 1971 and 1965 the Pakistani Army fired 3000 artillary shells at the Tanot Mata temple ( maintained by the BSF Border Security Force of India ) but none of them exploded or caused any damage to the temple , many of the shells fired by Pak Army are still kept for display in the war museum in the temple premises , after the war A highly decorated Pakistani General had visited the Tanot Mata Temple and had offered a silver umbrella to the temple to honour the goddess.

    1:52 Wow! Your grandfather flew a B-52!? Amazing that the plane will still likely be flying in USAF service by the time you yourself grow old.
    I am guessing your grandfather flew it in the late 50s and 60s? Back then the B-52 had turbojet engines, probably with early Ni superalloy blades. And by the time this plane retires, it will probably be flying on a turbofan engine with CMC blades.
    2:12 Si Vic Pacem Parabellum. If you want peace, prepare for war. I loved that quote when I first read it in my high school days.
    7:42 About the language part, it is not a problem, actually. The Officers and NCOs all understand the two major languages Hindi and English. Even many soldiers understand Hindi apart from their mother tongue. The reason for having different regiments is more due to tradition, really. Some regiments, like the 61st Cavalry Regiment have their origins in the erstwhile Jodhpur Lancers, part of the Army of the Maharaja of Jodhpur.
    Jodhpur lancers made their mark in history in World War 1 at the Battle of Haifa where these horse-mounted men wielding melee weapons charged and took control of a hill that was fortified by machine gun-totting Ottoman Empire troops led by German Army officers. *This was the last successful Cavalry charge in History of mankind.* Each Indian Army regiment has such rich history, tradition and origins. Which is why we have Regiments based on various regions and ethnicities. That said, it is the extremely common to see individual battalions from these Regiments being led by Officers of different ethnicities and regions than the men.
    22:58 That rifle is the infamous SLR. Affectionately called the Stup!d Long Rifle. Literally the worst weapon for CQB. Funny thing is, some Police forces in India still have that rifle as standard issue. That thing chambers a 7.62X51 mm, basically a .308 caliber. Don't ask me why Police have something with that kind of range and stopping power as standard issue, it is a cost saving measure to have Army hand-me-downs go to the Police. Now that the Army is dumping the INSAS and switching to the SiG-716 G2, the INSAS will replace the SLR in the Police. Meanwhile Indian laws prevent civilians from carrying even a dagger, forget an actual firearm.
    35:07 That thing might not be a dud but instead have a time fuze instead of an impact fuze.
    35:29 Actually, back then the Army didn't have a budget for multiple combat uniforms. So olive greens were all you had.
    38:15 41:25 Yep, these Hawker Hunters were old 1950s jets with no Night Vision capability or anything like modern IIR sensors. Funny thing, the last Hunter retired from the Indian Air Force in 1996 and was replaced by a freaking Sukhoi-30 MKI. That beast can carry 4 and a half times the payload at twice the range. Imagine going from a 2nd generation jet straight to a 4th generation jet. And now these Sukhois are being upgraded to 4.5th generation standards.
    42:11 IKR! The director really did a Napolean era infantry vs 1971-era FN MAG equipped infantry.

    If you are going to try more war movies, then Shershaah, Lakshya are recommended. Not so highly recommended are LOC Kargil (from the same director as Border, but too long, too many characters, takes too much time to get going), Tango Charlie (it's not a war movie per se, more like memoirs of a footsoldier, but again, too slow to come to any coherent point.)

    The Indo-Pakistani War of 1971 was a military confrontation between India and Pakistan that occurred during the Bangladesh Liberation War in East Pakistan from 3 December 1971 until the Pakistani capitulation in Dhaka on 16 December 1971. The war began with Pakistan's Operation Chengiz Khan, consisting of preemptive aerial strikes on 11 Indian air stations. The strikes led to India declaring war on Pakistan, marking their entry into the war for East Pakistan's independence, on the side of Bengali nationalist forces. India's entry expanded the existing conflict with Indian and Pakistani forces engaging on both the eastern and western fronts.Thirteen days after the war started, India achieved a clear upper hand, and the Eastern Command of the Pakistan military signed the instrument of surrender on 16 December 1971 in Dhaka, marking the formation of East Pakistan as the new nation of Bangladesh. Approximately 93,000 Pakistani servicemen were taken prisoner by the Indian Army, which included 79,676 to 81,000 uniformed personnel of the Pakistan Armed Forces, including some Bengali soldiers who had remained loyal to Pakistan.The remaining 10,324 to 12,500 prisoners were civilians, either family members of the military personnel or collaborators (Razakars).
