2 December 2012

The Sacred Defense Works and Values Preservation and Publication Foundation will release a new oral history book based on Commander Ali Akbar-nejad’s war recollections.

IBNA: Author of Flight over Ghalavizan, Isa Jamali told IBNA that he has finished gathering the commander’s memories from the interview he had with him, and will have the book published by the Foundation.

Akbar-nejad was one of the commanders of the Division 25 of Karbala during Sacred Defense and was present in many major operations like Karbala V and Valfajr VIII.

He is currently the tactical commander of Sepah in Tehran, Hamedan and various other provinces of the Islamic Republic of Iran.

Jamali also said that he went through 50 hours of interviews with the Akbar-nejad and other figures like commanders Taghi Mehri, Morteza Ghorbani and Kohansal Komeil (all Akbar-nejad’s comrades) to garner the needed data for completion of the book.

Jamali has not yet reached a firm decision about the book’s title.

The book is arranged in 200 pages and each of its chapters covers a part of the commander’s life.

Operation Beit al-Moqaddas and Liberation of Khorramshahr

After Operation Fat’h al-Mobin, we traveled to Kermanshah and visited Sar-e-Pol-e-Zahab before heading to Ilam. During Operation Beit al-Moqaddas, the 27th Brigade was still receiving support from the West. We maintained contact with individuals who had previously worked in Area 7 and were now leading the brigade. It was through these connections that I learned about Operation Beit al-Moqaddas.

The Necessity of Receiving Feedback in Oral History

Whenever we engage in a task, we naturally seek ways to evaluate our performance — to correct shortcomings and enhance strengths. Such refinement is only possible through the feedback we receive from others. Consider, for instance, a basketball player whose shots are consistently accurate; should he begin shooting blindfolded, his success rate would rapidly decline, as he would be deprived of essential feedback from each attempt.
