The very first standoff between the Indian Army and the PLA along the north bank of Pangong Tso in the stretch btw Finger 4 and Finger 8.
You can see an injured PLA soldier being pinned down by an Indian Army officer who is actually protecting him from being assaulted by other enraged troops.

Close-ups are unforgiving. Every mark, every fit, every finish shows.
That’s why we shot the @sssdefence M72-I this way.
When you make everything yourself, down to the magazine that feeds both NATO & INSAS rounds, there’s no wide shot to hide behind.
Look closer. We did.
