Defence Day 2016 is being celebrated all over Pakistan, with full zeal and respect for the daring soldiers of our motherland.

To honor the sacrifices of our brave heroes of the 1965 war, this national day is observed every year on September 6 in memory of the endurances by the Pakistani Armed Forces.


What is more, 2016 marks the 51th anniversary of Pakistan’s Defence Day.
