The book illustrates the role played by the Sri Lanka Navy in defeating the LTTE.
While the humanitarian operation was in force, the media was able to cover most of the activities and release them to the public. This book has been compiled by Karannagoda to make both public and the younger generation, especially the school children as to how the Navy faced this challenge so that they too would learn to face future challenges.
Ministers Bandula Gunawardena, Prof.G.L.Peiris, Secretary to the President Lalith Weeratunga, Defence and urban Development Secretary Gotabaya Rajapaksa, Commanders of Tri Forces, Senior Officers in the Security Forces, the family of Admiral Wasantha Karannagoda were among the distinguished guests.(KH)
