india
the close engagement with the indian troops resulted in the gendarmerie losing about half their men; they fled in utter confusion leaving their dead and the injured behind. this enabled the main battalion to easily overrun the katangese force, clear the roadblock, and prevent the gendarmes from encircling the un headquarters in élisabethville. for his duty and courage, and disregard for his own safety, salaria was awarded the param vir chakra.
