When Dad left for Kargil He had married just one m

When Dad left for Kargil He had married just one month earlier. Don't go, family whispered, holding him tight, But duty called him to the mountain's fierce fight. 🏔️ He wore his uniform, so strong and so brave, 💪 Showing no fear, no wavering gaze. Mom stood beside him, her smile firm and wide, Yet her heart ached as he stepped outside. 💔 Days turned to weeks, and weeks into months, Each moment she listened for a knock on the door. 🚪 Would it be Dad, returning at last? 👀 Or news that would shatter our hearts so fast? 💔 Mom stayed strong, her strength was pride, 🛡️ In a family of purpose, where love can't hide. Neighbors and friends, without blood ties, Became our own, with shared fears and sighs. 😔 All dreamed of the day he'd return with a smile, His stories of bravery stretching a mile. 📜 The artillery’s roar, the might of their stand, Defending our nation, protecting our land. 🇮🇳 Dad’s unit, 108 Engineer Regiment, 🎖️ They stood by their motto, ek sau aath Shatrunash (108, destroyer of enemies ) 🎯 In history’s pages, engraved with their fame. One day the door opened, and there he stood, 🚪 A mix of joy and relief in our neighborhood. 🎉 He scooped mom up, her tears soaking his chest, 😭 In his embrace, she found her rest. For all the fears, the waiting and pain, 😰 The love of a father is what I gained. Though war took him far, brought him near death’s door, ⚔️ He returned alive, with sena medal on his chest. To all the Kargil fighters, brave and true, 🦸 from the whole heart, we salute you. ©Kshitija #Kargil
