After completing his training at the Sri Lanka Military Academy, he was commissioned as a Second Lieutenant in the 3rd Battalion, Gajaba Regiment.

1993

In November 1993 2nd Lt Nissanka and his platoon was assigned to the Pooneryn Camp and deployed facing Pooneryn just outside the town.

Due to pooneryn being a strategic stronghold it was under constant attack by the LTTE.

On November 11, 1993, at about 1.30 a.m., the LTTE unleashed a sudden and major offensive on the Pooneryn Camp in order to capture it.

The brunt of this attack fell on the lines 2nd Lt. Nissanka's platoon was defending.

The first wave was successfully repulsed by the 2nd Lt. Nissanka and his platoon.

A second more powerful attack soon followed which came from both the front and the rear of the line.

During this time 2nd Lt Nissanka moved from bunker to bunker, encouraging his men, paying no heed to the risk to his own life.

He called for reinforcements from the battalion headquarters, but reinforcements couldn’t be sent as the headquarters itself was under attack.

By around 5 a.m. 2nd Lt Nissanka was wounded badly, yet even in great pain he continued to command his men.

Then with the enemy advancing towards his position, 2nd Lt Nissanka ordered the surviving members of his platoon to withdraw with their wounded.

After giving the order he removed the pins on two grenades and ran towards the enemy, the grenades exploded killing him and the attacking terrorists instantly.

This gallant action allowed the remainder of his platoon to withdraw to safety with their wounded.

1996
