After all a well educated and well trained Officer (not a sahayak sepoy) has asked "why I am getting lesser pay now?" It is a serious question. Getting lesser pay for no fault. When does a Govt.servant get his pay reduced? As a punishment. And what did the Gen do abt this punishment for no offence done? The correct question is what the hell did the f*****g Gen do? The answer is sweet f*****g nothing. <br />The fact is this General is an excellent operational leader our nation had. But for him, Pakkis wud hv bn sitting on Siachen and urinating on us, lv alone firing at us.<br />But then there his greatness stops, like that of every commanders we had. Why go so far. The best we ever had Field Marshal S H F J Manackshaw could not get his Field Marshal's pension till he was on his death bed. What I say is our commanders are good to lead in war. Beyond that they are blind. <br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01928918771004757548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8660791779547883173.post-74039433803909177932015-08-21T18:07:01.916+05:302015-08-21T18:07:01.916+05:30My hats off to the Major for his insightful and cl...My hats off to the Major for his insightful and clear wake up call to all ESM and serving servicemen in India. I am very hopeful that at least now the ESM community as well as the servicemen will gain from this.<br />Thanks<br />PassivelyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
