In addition to all of this morale he had another outstanding characteristic too and it was he would boost the morale of others during hard and difficult moments.

Navideshahed: Major General Mohammad Ali Jafari regarding martyr Shafi Zadeh says: “During the crisis and difficult conditions he could be so useful and indeed it is a feature which does not exist in many war veterans; but Shafi Zadeh had a great and strong belief in God and he would make humans to remember the martyrs of Ashura. He and his comrades would make jokes before their martyrdom and they would mock the word death and they volunteered for martyrdom so passionately.”?

This morale of our martyrs was really marvelous and in fact every martyr has his own characteristics; including martyr Shafi Zadeh who was outstanding in management, thinking, presenting solutions and thoughts. He was one of the personnel who would boost the morale of other war veterans during tough and difficult moments as well. Maybe it is true to say that he was an agent of morale in the battlefields.

The most important role of martyr Shafi Zadeh could be seen during the military operation ‘Valfajr 8’. During this operation he played a significant role in the artillery and in launching an operation against the enemy. Martyr Shafi Zadeh struggled so much during this operation, because the military operation ‘Fav’, the information of stationing our artillery in the war zone ought to be kept secret and by surprise attacks the cannons would advance and they would station there as well and they would hide in order not to make the enemy to notice this issue. It really required a very exact management, but Shafi Zadeh successfully did this commission; as a result the enemy would be under the artillery range in a length of 70 to 80 kilometers from Basra side, specially when it wanted to advance towards Fav. The artilleries had been stationed in Abadan city.

Within the length of this way, the rear side of the enemy would be attacked by the artillery and it was a reason for the victory of Iranian forces during the military operation ‘Valfajr 8’. During this operation, the enemy faced with much causalities.
