RAWALPINDI: Chief of the Army Staff (COAS) General Qamar Javed Bajwa Tuesday visited Pano Aqil where he was given a detailed briefing on operational preparedness of the desert formation training in field.
The COAS witnessed training of formation at Field Firing Ranges, Salehpat. The participating troops demonstrated integrated battle drills by various components as part of defensive battle in desert, including fire and manoeuvre.
Interacting with the troops, the COAS appreciated their combat readiness, training standards and high morale while training under such tough conditions. “Effective integration of various arms and services during training is imperative for a befitting response to adversary during war,” he emphasised.
