Naik Brij Mohan Singh was the commander of a 30-member team that was tasked with capturing "Sando Top" in Mashkoh Sub-Sector. They also had a secondary task to capture a cliff 5250 mts high and progress towards the Pakistani logistic base. Naik Brij Mohan Singh launched the assault on the near-vertical Sando Top and found a sweet spot for some foothold in the battle near the cliff. However, the march ahead was halted due to the enemy's constant shelling. Naik Singh led from the front and started assaulting the slopes of Sando Top where the enemy had taken control. The brave soul would lob grenades at them and then follow it up by physically charging at them. This left the enemy baffled, they didn't know what to do. As he went about reclaiming what the enemy had captured he got severely injured. However, not thinking about it one bit, he kept charging on and even killed two enemy soldiers with his bare hands. His act of raw courage not only helped to eliminate 5 enemy soldiers but also saved lives of his comrades.
