The present Commanding Officer of Daring Dozen, invited all the surviving Veterans for a Re-Union on the Eve of 31st Raising Day of the Unit and he offered to make all the necessary arrangements for the event.
Most of the Veterans confirmed their willingness to attend the event, which was scheduled to be held over a period of three days from 09 Feb 2016 to 11 Feb 2016. All of us left our different locations in the Country to the unit which is located somewhere on the Western Border and reached there by 09 Feb 2016 FN.
