Squadron Leader Tommy Broom, DFC The Legendary Pathfinder Mosquito Navigator (Paperback; INR 1095) is the true story of a braveheart who became a legend during the WW II.
This is a detailed account of military operations in the geographical territory of Naushera-Jhangar in the present day UT of Jammu & Kashmir. Not told before stories of valour and courage of both J&K State Forces and Indian Army.
"A Hundred Years" Probably the 'blows' part was taken literally from his oft-quoted speech regarding "the first few blows on the anvil of life which shaped human destiny...."; and ever since then, we have been at the receiving end of blows!
