Wg Cdr | Mohinder Singh Bawa | 4494 GD(P) | Award Date | Announced 26 Jan 1970 |
Details : | Wing Commander Mohinder Singh Bawa took over command of a fighter squadron in 1968. The Squadron was just then being raised and equipped with the latest aircraft. With limited resources, he had to create a base from which the subsequent squadrons of the Indian Air Force could be formed. Apart from training of personnel on a highly sophisticated aircraft, the squadron was faced with many difficulties in the induction of this equipment. During the short period of one year, the squadron reached a fully operational status; the officer set a personal example by attaining the highest instrument rating on supersonic aircraft. Throughout, Wing Commander Mohinder Singh Bawa displayed courage and devotion to duty. | |||
