“What a life — a glorious legacy of gallantry, impeccable uniforms and a motto of upholding the country’s honour, above all else? Surely, the armed forces are a dream profession for the likes of me,” said a starry-eyed adolescent Praneeta Chandola as she stood transfixed before formation after formation of soldiers with fashionably angled caps marching past the gallery.

Perhaps the defining moment of the morning was the faraway look in the eyes of a group of schoolboys as it heard the announcer introduce the four recipients of the country’s highest gallantry award, the Ashoka Chakra, who made the supreme sacrifice fighting terrorists during the ongoing counter terrorist operations:

“How can man die better, than facing fearful odds, for the ashes of his father, and the temples of his gods?”

And all the world knows that the Pakistani Army and the terrorists they supported were whipped bad by the Indian Army and thrown out of Kargil lock stock and barrel. They retreated so fast that they left their dead comrades behind. And the Indians had to give them a decent burial, because the Indian Army cares for the fallen men in arms - whether Indian or Pakistani.

See the difference? It's all about tradition. You'll never be able to understand that. Heck! Does the Pakistani Army care for its soldiers?

And you compare a rag tag circus of terrorists supported by the Pakistani army and ISI to the highly trained and professional Indian Army? Lol!

I have one request. Would someone tell them to stop calling here and acting like they are American
