Hamid Gul
Lieutenant-General (R) Hamid Gul (; 20 November 1936 – 15 August 2015) HI(M), SBt, was a three-star general in the Pakistan Army, defence analyst and a former spymaster. Gul was notable for serving as the Director-General of the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), Pakistan's premier intelligence agency, between 1987 and 1989. During his tenure, Gul played an instrumental role in directing ISI support to Afghan resistance groups against Soviet forces during the Soviet war in Afghanistan, in cooperation with the CIA.〔(Afghanistan War ) ''Infoplease.com'', 22 July 2007〕 Among his possessions was a piece of the Berlin Wall, gifted to him by the Germans for "delivering the first blow" to the Soviet Union.〔
Gul was also widely credited for expanding covert support to Kashmiri nationalist groups against neighbouring rival India in the disputed Kashmir region from 1989,〔("Bhutto Conspiracy Theories Fill the Air" ) ''Time Magazine'', 28 December 2007〕 diverting focus from the fallout of the Soviet war. Gul earned a reputation as a "Godfather" of Pakistani geostrategic policies.〔http://tribune.com.pk/story/938886/ex-spy-master-hamid-gul-passes-away-in-murree/〕〔("Ex-Pakistan spy chief urges talks with Mullah Omar" ) ''CNN'', 12 March 2010〕 Following an escalation of the Kashmir militancy in India and the Taliban insurgency in Afghanistan, he remained a controversial figure even after retirement, and was accused by the United States of having ties to shady groups. However, Gul denied the allegations.〔 Gul's tenure as the director of the ISI coincided with Benazir Bhutto's term as the Prime Minister of Pakistan. Later, Gul played a role in the establishment of the Islami Jamhoori Ittehad, a conservative political alliance formed to oppose Bhutto's Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP).
On August 15, 2015, he died after suffering a brain hemorrhage.

He briefly got admission in Government College Lahore, before being admitted to Pakistan Military Academy Kakul. Gul's family were Pathans of Punjab and belonged to the Yusufzai tribe, who originated from Swat and migrated to Lahore, later settling in Sargodha in Punjab.〔https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZV5fGNuMO1U〕
