The fighter for freedom chose the way to difficulty, turmoil and oppression. The rallied on that momentous day not on the basis of religion, but as a National unit, that thrived eagerly to achieve Independence from poverty, oppression and maladministration.

The Naked force of the civilized enemy emerged with its unconcealed fangs, ready to tear up the National spirit in an orgy of devastation.

...Bombers. Grenades and Machine Guns...

But the heroic fighters carried on their heavy task with more zeal, courage and discipline.

The dawn of a new era, with its varied colour dazzled the plains of Imphal. The enchanting tunes of 'Kawali' filled the rugged hills and jungles of Arakan. The night air sang the song of Independence among the pine trees of Kohima.

Unfed, ill-clad and wretched, the valiant fighters marched on and on.

...Only a Bridge !...
