On 21st of October 1917, while defending Lukeledi Mission against a German assault, Sergeant Adam el Hashim of 1/3rd Kings African Rifles was sent at the head of a small detachment of soldiers into Lukeledi village to outflank the enemy. El Hashim's men stumbled on a whole company of Germans, and were driven back. Finding himself surrounded and cut off on his own, el Hashim drew his revolver, shot three officers who were trying to capture him, and managed to rejoin his men.
