Book Summary
|
|
The present book is the story of gallant sons of Indian soil. They staked their lives in the service of the country. It was their bravery and dare-devilery that earned the name and reputation for Indian Forces. Without their courage and leadership Indian Forces could never achieve the prominence. All the countries of the World know that Indian Soldiers, Sailers and Air-men can die for the country but can never betray it. The First World War and Second World War are the witness of their bravery and courage. They fought in the extreme climatic conditions with minimum resources – in the desert, oceans and in the air. It is the duty of every one of us to pay our homage to these fearless persons working under the leadership of the Chiefs of Army, Navy and Air Force. This book is the succinct and lucid portrayal of the service elites who are the embodiment of gallantry, undaunted courage and devotion to duty. This book is a humble tribute to their bravery and patriotism. This book will be very useful to service officers, youths and research scholars. It will save their precious time by providing all the essential information about the Services Chiefs of India. Salient Features - 11 Portrait Photos of the supereme commanders of Armed Forces.
- 16 Coloured and 4 black & white photographs on art paper make the book colourful.
- 22 Generals, 18 Admirals, 20 Air Marshal & Air Chief Marshal portrait photographs make it a rare collection.
- It’s a vivid glimpse of the Martial History of India from independence to-date
