United Nations India-Pakistan
Observer Mission
United Nations
India-Pakistan Observer Mission (UNIPOM) was a United Nations
observer mission involving Canadians in 1965-66.
UN Mandate
Following clashes between
Indian and Pakistani regular troops from Apr to Sept 1965 which
eventually spread to Kashmir, the UN Security Council established
the mission to ensure supervision of the cease-fire and the
withdrawal of armed personnel from the Rann of Kutch to Kashmir, a
1,000-mile segment of the western border between India and Pakistan.
Following a following a peace conference at Tashkent in Feb 1966,
the two armies withdrew and UNIPOM was disbanded the next month.
Canadian Military
Involvement
Canada provided 3 Caribou
and 3 Otter aircraft from 117 (RCAF) Air Transport Unit, based at
Lahore, Pakistan.
Insignia
|
 |
Ninety days service entitled a Canadian soldier to the UNIPOM
Medal, between 22 Sep 1965 and 24 Mar 1966. The ribbon was the
same as for the UNMOGIP Medal, with a dark green 4mm centre
merging outwards through shades of lighter green to white with
an abrupt break in UN blue 4mm on the edges. |
There were 112 awards of
the medal to Canadians.
