Pakistan Defence Forces
Pakistan Armed Forces rank among the best and professionally trained forces. Some units of Pakistan Army are more than 200 years old and boast their past glories and feats with pride. Equipped with some of the latest and state of art weapons and equipment, the Armed Forces of Pakistan have proved their mettle on the battle grounds. Besides defending the geographical frontiers of the country, the officers and men are always there to respond to the natural calamities and fighting out the terrorists. The timely assistance provided by the Pakistan Armed Forces in the recent earthquake has been case in point. The relief and reconstruction effort by the men in uniform continues unabated day and night even when the falling snow has made it difficult to reach the most inaccessible areas of the world.

Pakistan Armed Forces are also the major contributors of the UN Peace Keeping efforts all around the globe since Pakistan gained independence in 1947. The first Pakistani contingent was dispatched to Indonesia in 1962 when Indonesia and Holland developed a dispute on New Guinea. The Pakistani contingent had the distinction of transferring the occupation of New Guinea from Holland back to Indonesia and on 1 October 1962, the UN flag was raised by a Pakistani soldier in the disputed land. The contingent stayed in Indonesia for nine months. This was the beginning, and now Pakistani contingents are much sought out by UN for their devotion and excellent performance. 
have been invariably engaged in tasks to build the communication infrastructure, excavation of earth from canals, mega projects like construction of KKH with the assistance of China, the Makran Coastal Highway, flood relief operations etcetera. However, the "Operation Lifeline" recently undertook by the Armed Forces of Pakistan in the wake of 8 October 2005 earthquake in the NWFP and Azad Kashmir would never be forgotten for years to come. Reacting promptly, the men reached the most inaccessible places on the rugged mountains and rescued injured to hospitals in Rawalpindi / Islamabad and down south to Gujranwala and Lahore. The entire fleet of Army Aviation flew innumerable sorties round the clock to take relief goods to the affected areas and brought back sick and injured back to base hospitals. Where helicopters could not reach, men carried relief goods on their back and reached the needy. The undertaking of relief operation of this magnitude could only be taken by the men and machines of the Armed Forces of Pakistan.

The decoration may be awarded to any member of Pakistan's armed forces, regardless of rank or branch of service, for extraordinary bravery in the face of the enemy. It is, therefore, in the same category as Great Britain's Victoria Cross. Recipients may use the abbreviation NH. after their names.

Sitara-i-Jur'at (Star of Courage) is awarded to all ranks for gallantry and distinguished services in the face of the enemy. The award carried the right to use SJ. as a post nominal abbreviation. The decoration is roughly comparable to the British Military Cross. Established: 16 March 1957, by the President of Pakistan - No. F. 40(3)/Pres/57, Gazette of Pakistan 19 March 1957. It is a pentagonal silver medal with a five-pointed star in the center and rays and stars between the points. The medal is suspended from an ornamental bar with the name of the decoration, "Sirata-i-Jur'at".
Tamgha-i-Jur'at (Medal of Courage) is awarded to non-commissioned officers and enlisted men for gallantry and distinguished services in the face of the enemy. The award carried the right to use the post nominal abbreviation TJ. The decoration is roughly comparable to the British Distinguished Conduct Medal.

NORTHERN PAKISTAN
Just before Pakistan-China border
Northern Pakistan
A snapshot of some of my travels in the breathtaking areas of Northern Pakistan 12 years ago - the red line across the mountains is the border with Azad Kashmir. In fact, this view also takes in Punjab, the Islamabad Capital Territory and the North-West Frontier Province- four of Pakistan's eight provinces
Pakistan through my eyes
Pardon me for making another mosaic collection of my photographs but I just couldn't help it. Having photographed Pakistan especially Islamabad-Rawalpindi (where I live) extensively I have come to appreciate everything about Pakistan- and I have found beauty in them- from Pakistan's sunsets to landscapes to architecture to remnants of British colonial buildings to a weather-beaten tap to a single dew on a plant- and especially culture.
