Description

On February 4, 2023, a special First Day Cover (FDC) was released to commemorate the remarkable legacy of General K. S. Thimayya, one of India’s most distinguished military leaders. The First Day Cover, labeled FDC-2023, pays tribute to the exceptional service and contributions of General Thimayya, who played a pivotal role in shaping the Indian Army during its formative years. General Kodendera Subayya Thimayya, popularly known as General “Timmy,” served as the Chief of Army Staff from 1957 to 1961. Renowned for his valor and strategic acumen, he was a key figure in several significant moments in Indian military history, including his leadership in the Indo-Pakistani War of 1947-48, where he commanded the 19th Infantry Division in Kashmir. General Thimayya was also notable for being the only Indian to command an infantry brigade in World War II, leading the 8th Infantry Brigade in Burma.
