A male goat (a buck)named as Mastana

His name is Mastana. His story goes back to the time of Indo-Pak war of 1965. One of the Indian battalion got stuck in the mines laid down by Pakistan all around them. At that point of time, they prayed to Jwala Devi for providing a way out and suddenly a male goat (a buck) came running towards them. He jumped alternately through the mines and reached them. Our army followed him and came out of the Pakistani trap safely. Since that day, they named him Mastana and consider him as a messenger of Jwala Devi. When he died… Another buck replace him who is also named Mastana and this is followed continuously since 1965. Our army has given rank to Mastana and he is Hawaldar ranked in army. He gets promoted accordingly. He is the strongest, tallest and finest buck . Call it a myth or a superstitious belief, but this does exist in our Indian Army.
