What is Indian Army?

         ***Indian Army***       

       

                 India has one among the best armies within the world. Our soldiers have proved their mettle altogether theatres of wars since prehistoric times, hi recent times our soldiers were sent to the Congo, Suez, Indo-China and Korea on missions of peace.

              During the last two World Wars our soldiers fought in Europe, Africa and therefore the Middle East and won laurels for British Empire. Our soldiers served in France and other countries also.

              They helped to bring Hitler and his armies to their knees. Wherever they were sent, victory was theirs. It goes to the credit of the Indian Anny that the primary Victoria Cross visited the credit of an Indian soldier.

              Our soldiers have never surrendered. Their motto has always been "do or die". In the India-China war of October-November 1962 and later within the Indo-Pak war of September, 1965 one Indian soldier killed repeatedly his enemy counterparts on various fronts.

              If India retreated within the India-China war it had been not for want of courage except for want of adequate weapons which the Chinese had and that we didn't . hi fact our soldiers weren't even adequately clothed. As an American paper said, our soldiers were fighting on icy tops of the mountains in summer uniforms.

             If we had fought for British so heroically, we could certainly fight for defending our freedom. But we've to coach our army for the aim . We aren't only in need of weapons but also in need of trained officers to steer the armies. We will need to fill all the gaps as rapidly as possible. It is a hazardous task to offer rapid promotion to junior officers but we are sure they're going to justify the arrogance of the state placed in them.

               The Indian Army has three wings-land forces, navy and air force. The Chiefs of the three forces are directly under the President of India, who is that the Supreme Commander of our soldiers .

               The three wings of the Indian Army got to be strengthened. It is a pity that a number of the leaders of our country did not foresee the Chinese threat and bogged down defense production. The India-China war has served a useful purpose. With the help of friendly nations we'll soon structure the loss. Let every Indian soldier remember the inspiring message of 1 of the ablest leaders of India, Sardar Patel:-

             "The deeds of gallantry you performed within the two Great wars adorn the pages of world history. Even the enemy recognised your merit in war. You proved yourself first-class soldiers, inferior to none within the world. But then you fought for others. Now you've got to fight for your own country, the one that you love India.

            "You should prepare yourself for the responsibility which can still increase. We have won the freedom. It is for you to guard it. You have to form an all-round effort to take care of and consolidate it. Let the discharge of your duties be your privilege. You will enhance the reputation of your country and therefore the country are going to be pleased with you."
