Well done, that man.
The Azad Kashmir Regular Forces, raised in 1947, were armed and supported by Pakistani government; The regiment was pushed to fight the Indian Army in the Northern valley of Kashmir in 1948. Bands of armed veterans formed into ad hoc platoons, companies and battalions led by retired officers and NCOs. After cease-fire was declared in Kashmir, these battalions joined together to form the Azad Kashmir Regular Forces (AKRF). The AKRF had its own intake and training structure separate from the Pakistan Army. The AKRF was the military element of the Azad Kashmir Government. Uniforms and rank structures were the same as the Pakistan Army.
