It started with a military post , at an elevation 19500 feet , opposite to Pakistan and known as “the world’s highest battlefield.” near Siachen Glacier .
To protect the nation , soldiers were present on this critical area , on duty, and suddenly
a wall of ice more than a half-mile in length thundered down onto the encampment , the temperature dropped about " -40 " degree Celsius !!!
After giving up hopes of 'live' soldiers , rescue team started formal rescue operation which ended with a thunderous shock !
Naik Hanamanthappa Koppad
is the name of that soldier who found ALIVE INSIDE THE ICE , after being buried for about 5 days !!! Doctor described him as
“severely dehydrated, hypothermic, hypoxic, hypoglycemic and in shock....but alive !”
Indian Army rescue teams had tunneled their way 35 feet down through the ice around Siachen Glacier, and rescued Naik Hanamanthappa Koppad alive !
This instance is written as Siachen miracle in the pages of Indian history !
How he mangaed to live there is still under the study but it is really a serious and inspirational story! Salute those " Jawans ".
Update - Today on 11 Feb 2016...the brave soldier passed away...Shahid...but his dedication for India will always keep him alive in the hearts of us.
