Great Martyr instructor "Abbas Feiz" was the responsible person for Imam Hossein military place and Sorkheh is called the head of Martyrs. I was with great Martyr in the Badr military operation. In March 10, 1984 we were lined up in Atomic energy and with the bus moved towards Majnoon Island. We arrived at 1:30 AM at night in this Island.
We endured a cold night till morning. In the morning Martyr Kiumars Noroozi the battalion assistant of Musa Ebn Jafar described the military area with a map. When the prayers were finished on the noon, the soldiers had a very amazing intellectual feeling. A few hours from sunset was passed. So the boats started to move for shifting the soldiers. From Island till releasing spot was 12 kilometers. Abbas Ali was in our boat and would make other soldiers strong spiritually. In before we arrived to the land of Dejleh many of boats were damaged, in the way I saw Abbas Ali Ashraf was paddling the boats and said strongly to us the encouragement. The diver soldiers should have broken the line of enemy in before we arrived in that line, so the way would be open for others. At 23 P.M, the military operation was started by saying the phrase Ya Zahra.
Due to the errors had been created in our boat; we had to ride another boat. There was almost an hour till the sunrise and we were arrived the ambushed army stations of Iraq. Since this army station did not stop firing gun on us, we changed the way we must go from that. The Iraqi soldiers had seen us and were shooting towards us by their heavy weapons. We arrive to land at 6:00 AM. We passed the traps were in the way and were ambushed behind earthwork. Since our forces arrived there late, the military operation was put off for the next day. When we passed the first line, I saw Martyr Mohammad Bagher Fakhri, had sat down in a rifle-pit and was waving at us to greet us; we saw one of his hands is injured. But he did not want us to know.
From there the distance was 6 kilometers till the river of Dejleh and by the strength and power of our forces this work was done successfully. Our defending line was near the village of Alharibeh that the river of Dejleh would pass from that. By the demand of battalion demand Mahdi Mahdavi Nejad the rifle-pits were set behind the road was near to the village. The rifle-pit of Mujtaba Sabuhi was near our rifle-pit. Mujtaba was a funny man and was a strong military man. The movement of Iraqi vehicles could be seen in the Al Emareh Autobahn clearly. The houses of villages had been made of bricks and stones. It was a safety place to attack enemy.
We would hit shots by mortar shell 60 from the yard of those houses. Martyr Feiz would say the name of God after every shoot and by this sound enemy was trembling. The enemy had equipped many forces. He demanded to me and one of other soldiers together with Mahdishahr soldiers go near the defending place of enemy. After minutes he and some other soldiers joint us. He was so strong and would direct the soldiers. Many of the Iraqi tanks had been fired. The enemy had to go backward a little. I can say his strength in a way that God would help him. It was night and he cleared the place of forces for being situated in there. This earthwork was our defending barrier. In the left side of us Dejleh river was seen. I liked to be guard near Martyr Hossein Sangari. Martyr Sangari was a low aged army man despite of being injured he would still continue his fight.
We helped each other and made a rifle-pit and then prayed God, now it was ten o’clock I was so tired and fell asleep. Martyr Sangari would move me rapidly I do not sleep; I said to Hossein I am going to Abbas that I ask about helping forces. In the way I saw two of the soldiers I thought they are asleep on guard time posts I called them. But I notices both of them had martyred. I went more ahead, I saw Martyr Feiz, as he was looking to his watch said: "the assistant forces will arrive soon." I went back to Hossein, at 3:30 AM the helping forces were arrived and we went back to Alnahireh village. On March 16 another military operation occurred. Our forces were so little and the fire was so heavy. The Sorkheh soldiers ought to go to defending place of enemy with Martyr Feiz.
We ate the last lunch with him and then moved towards defending area of enemy. We were moving in a column in the way. When Mohammad Hossein Asrari martyred, Martyr Feiz said to me I pick up his R.P.G. I picked up his R.P.G weapon and I reached myself to the end of column of soldiers. At that place six to seven soldiers were injured and one of them was me. I was wrapping bondage on my wound I saw Martyr Feiz is taking bullets and said to us: "go backward in anyway we could." The Iraqis were saying resistance does not have benefit any more in Persian language on the speakers. Do not shoot and come here and make yourself captive. The soldiers were laughing even though they were injured. After minutes the news of martyrdom of Martyr Abbas Ali Feiz and his brother Mohammad Taghi Feiz was head and made us so unhappy and sad.
