Captain Shiva Chauhan of the Fire and Fury Corps became the first female officer to be operationally deployed at Kumar Post on the Siachen Glacier, the site of the highest fight. The Fire and Fury Corps of the Indian Army tweeted, "Capt Shiva Chauhan of Fire and Fury Sappers became the first woman officer to be operationally deployed in Kumar Post, at the highest battlefield of the world." Shiva's accomplishment is lauded in the Twitter post's description, which reads, "Breaking the Glass Ceiling." Before being posted to Kumar Post, she had to go through a difficult training process. India and Pakistan have been at war with each other on and off since 1984, with the Siachen Glacier serving as the highest battleground on the planet.
