Introduction

I wondered as a kid, as to how is the life of a soldier. I assumed that it must be a bed of roses as opposed to mine which was like hell because I had to go to school, finish homework, learn answers, appear in tests and exams and had no time to play. On the other hand, I felt that a soldier just has to move around here and there in his smart green uniform with his gun. The problem is that, even many grownups also feel the same, not realizing how wrong they are. Maximum people think that its like a regular 9 to 5 job but this is far from reality.

Army life

I used to tell my dad that I would also like to become an army officer like him (he served in the Territorial Army as a junior commissioned officer). When asked, “why I wanted to become an army officer”? My reply was, “I would get a gun and a strong stick and with that I would beat up the bad guys”. On this my dad used to laugh loudly.

Now I realize how wrong I was.  The reality is that, it is one of the toughest working environments and definitely not a bed of roses. I got some idea of the work environment of the army from the media but I soon realized it was half-truth. The only way by which I could get the real information was by talking to the real “Faujis”. Luckily my dad and some of his friends (who also served in the army) were more than willing to share their stories.

He told me that their training days were quite tough because the new environment was quite different from the civilian environment which they were used to. In civilian life 6 o’clock reporting time means 6.15 or may be even 6.30 but in army 6.00am means exactly 6.00am. My dad and his colleagues got punished many times for coming late. The punishment was usually quite difficult. Normally it was running with full gear for miles or something like that.

After morning P.T, physical endurance training started and that continued for few hours. Instructors were normally considered villains by most of the trainees. Once my dad and his colleagues were denied water after a ten-mile run. Their reaction was as expected. They had jokingly wished to kill the instructor then.

There were theory classes after that. Evening time was play time. Cadets used to play all type of games including football, volleyball, basketball etc. Dinner was a formal affair.  They made so many friends there. Time passed like that and the training of my dad finished.

He got posted at many places but there was one posting which according to him was the toughest. For that he even got a gallantry medal.

Conclusion

My dad says that if you want a routine life then army is not for you but if you want to be pushed to your limit and want your life to be little adventurous then you must join army.
