Ko Ko Oo (Ye)


Ko Ko Oo was a second year university student when 8.8.88 uprising happened. He was killed in Yinye village battle on January 23, 1991 in Ye township. He was my platton commander and I was the platton medic. Three students (Ko Ko Oo, Than Bo and Kyaw Soe Lay) were killed in action. 6 of us including me were wounded. The fight lasted for about 1-2 hours. There were about 14 of us against 1 company of soldiers. We were outgunned and outnumbered. We fought bravely. The top left picture is their graves.
