A sergeant told his officer he wanted to save a civilian
who was limping because of a gun shot on his leg. The wounded was helpless at
the rubbles and wreckage of houses where enemies were hiding, too.
The captain not only granted the request but crawled with
him to cover the gunny with fire (in case the bad guys shot at them) as he
retrieved the one – leg capable man.

The officer was startled after he saw weak, helpless,
thirsty, and famished children and women just waiting for miracle to pluck them
out to the hellhole the terrorists brought them into.
As the wounded man was carefully hurried up by the
sergeant to the military side, the captain wondered why he did not hear a shot
of a gun fire against them.
Seeing an opportunity to the extra ordinary gestures of
the enemies, he negotiated with them to free the other hostages after they told
him they were thirsty and hungry too in a war that saw them running away
for weeks from the gung-ho soldiers backed up by modern military hardware
not only provided by their government but with foreign powers.
