Pakistan's True Heroes

Our history is full of trillion sacrifices of our true national heroes for protection of their motherland since the time Pakistan came into being. Pakistan, since its earlier times faced the challenges of the world and the threats of its furious enemies but none of the enemies have ever succeeded in overpowering Pakistan although they were planning to uproot it since the time it came into being. Because the thing they have forgotten before attacking Pakistan or planning against it was that the Pakistan's tigers are guarding its frontiers and protecting it by the grace of ALLAH. They will never let the foes enter the pure land of TIGERS .They are  no ordinary people guarding the frontiers of Pakistan. they are special; special in their thoughts, action, living, rules, priorities, love for their land and special in their strength & bravery.

Not every man living in this country is given this honor and responsibility. Only Allah ALMIGHTY chooses them and confers them with the responsibility of guarding PAKISTAN. They devote their life completely to this Duty. They have different outlook of life and a different way of living it. They have firm and predetermined Aim which they strive to achieve in every moment of their life.  A normal individual dreams of extremely luxurious life or of being the most successful person BUT an ARMY soldier dreams and wishes only to live like ALI (R.A) &die like HUSSAIN (R.A), They dream to live & die for their country , with honor. Till now many foes have tried destroying Pakistan such as INDIANS, ANTIPAKISTAN FORCES AND RECENTLY TALAIBAN but Pakistan ARMY stood against them as SHEILDS. Their every breath is for their country. NONE of our enemies were able to overpower us & we are still protected. This is due to unlimited sacrifices made by PAKIATNI HEROES. Pakistan army!! They have laid down their life for the single cause of Pakistan. HEROES of 1965, heroes of 1971, heroes of 1984, Heroes of 1999 and present day War heroes are fighting war against anti-Pakistan forces. Have you ever thought why you all are able to sleep peacefully and soundly at night? You are able to wander and shop openly in the markets? You are able to live safely in your houses without the worry that someone can attack you or take you away from even your house. Why you are not facing insecurity? Why are you able to go to the schools and colleges without any fear? This is due to our heroes. Those brave heroes who have sacrificed their life for the sake of your life. There is a long list of such soldiers, who sacrificed their lives, shed their blood and bear wounds they are still fighting with increased courage, bravery, enthusiasm and spirit.

THE BRAVE DIE NEVER, THOUGH THEY SLEEP IN DUST; THEIR COURAGE NERVES A THOUSAND LIVING MEN

Life of a Pakistani Army Soldier

The life of a Pakistani soldier is very disciplined and demanding, yet compensated by a handsome salary, accommodation, free medical facilities, free messing, routine leave policy and air/rail passage at concessional rates. Above all the respect earned is unimaginable.
The present Army has dynamically turned into one of the best war machines in the world. Today Pakistan Army has developed and acquired the latest technological advancements in weaponry besides attaining the Nuclear Power status. In recognition to its meritorious gallantry, UNO has commissioned Pakistan Army in different UN missions around the globe, and has commended their performance with rich tributes. So if you think you have the burning spirit in you, join Pakistan Army to make it invincible.

Pak Army at a Glance

Pakistan is a poor country riven with ethnic and religious tensions. Pakistan enjoys close ties with China and shares an antipathy and distrust of India. Half of Pakistan disappeared following its disastrous 1971 war with India.
The Pakistan Army a total strength of 520000, larger than that of the United States, with a reserve element of 500,000 who have a reserve obligation up to the age of 45 years.
Since the founding of Pakistan, the army has been key in holding the state together, promoting a feeling of nationhood among disparate peoples and providing a bastion of selfless service in the midst of a venal government system. All too frequently, the Pakistan Army has felt the need to take over the government, cleanse it of corruption and try to reform its bureaucracy before returning it to civilian control. Army control of the government has all too often led to a corrupt military regime that eventually collapsed. Currently, the army is once again in charge of the government of Pakistan.
The key holder of power in the armed forces and, along with the president and the prime minister, one of the triumvirate that runs the country is the chief of the army staff (COAS)--formerly called the commander in chief. The COAS operates from army headquarters in Rawalpindi, near Islamabad. From this position, Ayub Khan, Zia and Musharef all seized power.
Other senior staff positions, at the lieutenant general level, include a chief of general staff, who supervises army intelligence and operations; the master general of ordnance; the quartermaster general; the adjutant general; the inspector general for evaluation and training; and the military secretary. The headquarters function also includes the chief of the Corps of Engineers, the judge advocate general, and the comptroller of civilian personnel, all of whom report to the vice chief of the army staff.
The 20 Infantry & 2 Armored Divisions are grouped under 9 different Corps headquarters commanded by 3-star Lieutenant Generals. These are:
I Corps (Mangla)II Corps (Multan)IV Corps (Lahore)V Corps (Karachi)X Corps (Rawalpindi)XI Corps (Peshawar)XII Corps (Quetta)XXX Corps (Gujranwala)XXXI Corps (Bahawalpur)
There is also the Northern Area Command, headquartered at Gilgit, directly responsible to army general headquarters.
Active army strength in 1994 was 520,000. In addition, there were 300,000 reserve personnel. Reserve status lasted for eight years after leaving active service or until age forty-five for enlisted men and age fifty for officers.
Paramilitary organizations, which were mainly of symbolic importance, included the 185,000-member National Guard, comprising the Janbaz Force--locally recruited militia mainly charged with air defense--and two programs similar to the United States Reserve Officers Training Corps, the National Cadet Corps and the Women Guard. The Women Guard, unlike the National Cadet Corps, included individuals trained in nursing, welfare, and clerical work. There were also some women in the Janbaz Force, and a very small number of women were recruited into the regular service in limited numbers to perform medical and educational work.
Paramilitary internal security forces were organized on the provincial level but were subordinate to the Ministry of Interior and were commanded by seconded army generals. These forces were in effect an extension of the army for internal security duties. The Pakistan Rangers, headquartered in Lahore, dealt with unrest in Punjab, while the Mehran Force performed similar functions in Sindh. In 1994 their strengths were 25,000 and 24,000, respectively, divided into "wings" of approximately 800 men each. The Frontier Corps, with a strength of 65,000, was based in Peshawar and Quetta with responsibility for the North-West Frontier Province and Balochistan. The corps was responsible to both the Ministry of States and Frontier Regions and to army headquarters. The corps was divided into twenty-seven local units--fourteen in the North-West Frontier Province and thirteen in Balochistan--and included the Chitral Scouts, the Khyber Rifles, the Kurram Militia, the Tochi Scouts, the South Waziristan Scouts, the Zhob Militia, and the Gilgit Scouts. There was also a Coast Guard, subordinate to the Ministry of Interior and staffed by army personnel.
In times of natural disaster, such as the great floods of 1992, army engineers, medical and logistics personnel, and the armed forces played a major role in bringing relief and supplies. The army also engaged in extensive economic activities. Most of these enterprises, such as stud and dairy farms, were for the army's own use, but others performed functions beneficial to the local civilian economy. Army factories produced such goods as sugar, fertilizer, and brass castings and sold them to civilian consumers.
Several army organizations performed functions that were important to the civilian sector across the country. For example, the National Logistics Cell was responsible for trucking food and other goods across the country; the Frontier Works Organization built the Karakoram Highway to China; and the Special Communication Organization maintained communications networks in remote parts of Pakistan.
