Seeralan joined the LTTE in 1992. After completing basic training, he went to the Navy Academy for advanced classes and maritime training. He excelled in maritime training and classes and excelled in sports.
The then in-charge of the Navy Academy, when Lt. Col. Naresh went to the radar station, he took him there and taught him various things like how to identify targets on the radar and its nuances in a way that he could understand. And while he was developing him as an excellent telecommunications operator, Lt. Col. Naresh became maveeran in the naval battle for the LTTE’s “Pulipaychal” against the SL´s land invasion operation “Munneripaychal”. Seeralan felt he has been left alone. But he remembered the national leader and the maveerar and engaged in his usual activities with new enthusiasm.
When the Naval Assault Brigade was formed in the memory of Lt. Col. Naresh, Seeralan also went there. He completed additional training. He also participated in maritime supply security and naval battles.
He participated in the supply operation to Southern Tamileelam under the leadership of the heroic Lt. Col. Mangalesh. Following this, following the arrival of new heavy weapons, Seeralan, who was one of those recruited for heavy weapons training, excelled in that training as well. After completing the training, he was attached to the Charles Regiment of the Naval Team of the LTTE and engaged in naval battles with heavy weapons.
He continued to work as the second-in-command of the battleship as a communications officer. During the peace period, according to the thoughts of the leader, Lt. Col. Niroin was appointed by the Special Commander as the in-charge of the Naval College, a training college with facilities for the Naval Team. He excelled in that work and played a key role in the development of many fighters and taught his field experiences to his fellow fighters.
As soon as the fighting began, he acted as the commanding officer of the fighting boat. He continued to act as the commanding officer of the fighting boats. He effectively assembled the boats in the sea battles and led them in the right direction. A fighter who gradually grew up in this way, a fighter with long sea battle experience, a teacher who taught his fellow fighters what he knew.
A hero who did any job properly and with satisfaction. A hero who respected his fellow fighters. An excellent administrator. We can go on and on about the commander in this way.
We lost such a hero on 24.09.2006 during the conflict with the Sri Lankan Navy in the Pulmoddai sea area during the Southern Tamileelam Supply Security War.
