One of the small group of SAS soldiers to come under attack at Mirbat, Oman in 1972. Under attack from around 250 enemy, less than a dozen SAS men managed to desperately defend their position against the onslaught until air support could arrive. Fijian Saveseki covered 700 yards under intense fire to assist with the firing of the 25-pdr field gun, after the gunner was wounded. Despite being so outnumbered, and losing some of their number, the battle was won and was a key turning point in the war in Oman. Savesaki later took part in Operation Nimrod - the assault on the Iranian Embassy in London, and served with the SAS during the Falklands campaign.

When 250 well armed and trained rebel tribesmen attacked the small SAS outpost at Mirbat few would have given good odds on their survival. At the height of the battle Corporal Labalaba and Trooper Savesaki, both Fijians and both wounded fought off relentless assaults by the attacking Adoo. Firing a World War II vintage 25pdr field gun at point blank range Labalaba finally fell to a snipers bullet just as Captain Kealy and Trooper Tobin reached the gunpit to aid its defence. Within minutes however Tobin was dead, but Kealy and the remaining defenders critical position was saved by the timely arrival of 2 Omani Strikemaster jets, and helicopters carrying 24 men of G Squadron. Sacrifice at Mirbat, Dhofar, Oman, 19th July 1972 by David Pentland. (APB)Click For DetailsDHM1413APB
