Physical Instructor Gafur no more….

PTI Gafur passed away on Friday, 17^th April at 2 AM.

Inna Lillahe Wa Inna Ilaihe Rajeun.

PTI Gafur served the Marine Academy for over 25 years (1962-1987) right through the Pakistan days. He was landmark in the Academy.

Let’s all keep him in our daily prayers.

May Almighty grand him Jannah.

Those who remember him, will miss him. He was a hearty man and was very close to the Bangladeshi cadets during the Pakistan days when most course instructor officers were from West Pakistan. The older generation of the Marine Academy alumni will remember him very fondly.

Here are some recent photos of PTI Gafur when he visited Singapore in May of 2011 and was presented with a crest.
