Posthumous honour

Letter May 28, 2011
The lower-ranked naval commandos who gave up their lives defending the base should receive equal honour.

KARACHI: According to a report in your newspaper, the prime minister has forwarded the name of Lieutenant. Yasir Abbas of the Pakistan Navy who was martyred during the attack on PNS Mehran. This is all well and good but may I ask that why not, also, consider, the lower-ranked naval commandos who gave up their lives defending the base?
