Havildar Muhammad Azim Steadying His Men Under A Hot Fire At Serapeum After Being Wounded. At Serapeum on February 4th 1915, during the operations on the Suez Canal, the enemy made signs of surrender, and then, apparently, treacherously fired on a company of Indian troops when close to their trench. Havildar Muhammad Azim, of the 92nd Punjabis, was wounded, but gallantly remained with his section. When his company took up a position to re-engage the enemy, he kept his men steady under a hot fire and directed them with coolness and pluck. He was present at the final surrender of the enemy and marched back with the prisoners to camp, refusing any attention to his wound until he arrived there. For his conspicuous gallantry Havildar Muhammad Azim was awarded the Indian Order of Merit (2nd Class) |
