I was not afraid of death. All I prayed for now was to not die before winning back Tiger Hill for India. On the night of 3 July 1999, Grenadier Yogendra Singh Yadav, all of 19 years old, was given a very crucial task along with the Ghatak Platoon of 18 Grenadiers Regiment – to capture the impenetrable Tiger Hill. Fresh after capturing Tololing Hill, the Unit was high on josh, but also battered and bruised. Braving the inhospitable terrain, freezing cold weather and facing fierce enemy fire, he was the first in this Ghatak Platoon to reach the top. Even after his body was pierced by multiple bullets and grenade shrapnel, he charged the enemy bunkers and cleared the path for the regiment to capture the mighty peaks of Tiger Hill. He displayed the most conspicuous courage, indomitable gallantry, grit and determination under extreme adverse circumstances during the Kargil War which made him the youngest awardee of the highest Indian military award – the Param Vir Chakra. The Hero of Tiger Hill is the true story of a brave soldier who leaves no stone unturned and fights valiantly for the honour of his country. In his own words, Captain (Hony) Yogendra Singh Yadav gives us an inspiring account of the Kargil War through his transformative journey of fulfilling his most cherished dream of serving the Indian Army.

The only person to be decorated with the Kirti Chakra and the Shaurya Chakra in the same investiture ceremony, Col. RK Sharma’s army career is what legends are made of. Serving in the Kargil War, where he won back Point 5465 for his battalion and for the country; the volatile North East, where his tenure was marked by extraordinary successes in counter-insurgency operations as well as in redefining the relationship of Assam Rifles with the local people; and in the Congo as a peacekeeper under the UN flag, Raj's career stands out for his humility, his daredevil attitude, and raising the prestige of the army wherever he served. But it was not all so easy. Going beyond stereotypical narratives about soldiers fighting their way through everything, Shoorveer is the story of a man who embraced the challenges life threw at him and overcame them with sheer determination and grit. This is a story of valour on the battlefield and courage in everything else life has to offer. An intimate look at what it means to serve as a soldier and lead as an officer, this is the story of every army personnel out there.
