'Snapped Necks, Smashed Faces Beyond Recognition': How Indian Soldiers Killed Chinese PLA Troops After CO Fell

In the counter-attack following the killing of their commanding officer Colonel B Santosh Babu by Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) troops in Ladakh's Galwan valley, the jawans of 16 Bihar regiment, using the most "primitive fighting methods", snapped the necks of at least 18 PLA troops and smashed their faces beyond recognition, reports Deccan Chronicle.

The jawans of 16 Bihar were reportedly joined by the 'Ghatak' troops. Together, they "unleashed a reign of terror, unheard in modern military history", the report said.

The PLA had a tough time handling the bodies of its soldiers, many of whose limbs were broken or severed, the report said citing inputs gathered from multiple sources.

Bodies of the slain PLA soldiers were scattered all over the ridge and nearby gorge.

According to the report, the "primitive fighting methods" by the Indian soldiers using stones, bayonets and sticks suggest they were merciless in their attack the moment their commanding officer fell.

Launching a counterattack, 60 Indian troops charged towards the PLA personnel.

As the word spread about Colonel's death, the 16 Bihar men were said to have joined by the Ghatak troops.

The Ghatak commandoes are experts in close-quarter battle and spearhead assaults ahead of the battallion, the report said.

Both, 16 Bihar men and Ghatak troops together chased down at least 18 PLA troops.

"Some had their necks dangling from their bodies, while those whose faces were smashed with stones were beyond recognition," sources were quoted in the report as saying.

The sources further said that Indian troops too were attacked brutally but the counter-attack by Indian soldiers was as brutal as it could get.

As they Avenged the death of their CO, the soldiers were chanting war-cries, they added.

The attack and counter-attack went on for over four hours. Few Indian troops snatched swords and rods from Chinese soldiers and used them against the enemy.

According to the sources quoted in the report, many PLA troops tried to escape and were chased by Indian soldiers. However, the chasing Indian troops ended up in PLA custody as their numbers multiplied.

These soldiers were among those who were released on Friday (19 June), the report said.

Dang. Looks like there's a lot of Celt in these bone-breakers' gene pool.

(Why am I not surprised?)

The Indian Army actually had a Jewish COS at one time. Native Indian, member of that microminiature Jewish minority that could date back to the Neo-Assyrian conquest and the 10 lost tribes. However they got there he was originally a royal UK Indian Army officer & WWII vet. I can’t remember his name.

One of the several Indian student assistants I had at the university before I retired said we weren’t handling terrorist attacks against America the right way.

Female Student: “In India when Muslims firebomb a bus and kill the people on it or something like that the people in India get really mad.”

Me: “We do, too.”

Student: “No, you don’t understand. The retaliation in India would be to look for Muslims, pull them off trains or out of cars or buildings, beat them, break all their bones and then burn them to death.”

Now I know why details were sketchy. Made me smile reading how the Indians handed the Chinese their arses, and heads.

It’s nice to see men being men and kicking ass.

From the looks of the picture I would say that they are getting a group picture of a successful safari.

However, they hate India. I think they could probably be convinced if China promises to give them the Uighers.

We have much to learn from India. Would be nice if they could do some dirty work here in the U.S.A. on Muslims, on our behalf.

Billy Fish on Afghan polo:

Peachy Carnehan : Do they always use such a big ball?

Billy Fish : Depend on size of man’s head. Big head, big ball, small head, small ball. That Bashki man. Oh big damn head.
