Maj Gen Ian Cardozo, AVSM, SM (Retd)
“He is, in fact, the perfect example of the battle casualty who does what he loves, loves what he does, is never afraid, and never gives up.”
Lt Gen Vinod Vashisht (Retd)
“Despite being an amputee he would set standards of excellence in endurance and adventure. Just this spirit makes him a soldier and a human to emulate and serve as a source of inspiration to one and all across the ages.”
