Sacrifice at Mirbat, Dhofar, Oman, 19th July 1972 by David
Pentland. 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.
