The image showcases the brave soldiers of RSR 2 / 6th Battalion, a renowned Gurkha regiment, as they navigate their way across the mighty Indus River. With India's picturesque landscape serving as a backdrop, this snapshot offers a glimpse into the challenging conditions faced by these courageous troops. The scene depicts an essential aspect of wartime logistics - transporting supplies and equipment.
