for the honor of India

I was sitting in the waiting area of an airport iin USA when a couple of US Army Rangers walked by,
the Crowd moved aside gave way to them and each one of the person standing there shook hands with them and said thank you..

What a Gesture by the people of America and then we call ourselves as a great Nation..
Albert Ikka, Arun Khterapal,Jaswant Singh,Nirmal jeet singh,GS salaria and many more...
Do these names look familiar..?

all are decorated war heroes who at a very young age sacrificed their life for India

As a nation have we forgotten ...this freedom of speech that is entitled to us is because of whom..Who is responsible for protecting our freedom ...have we forgotten?
Brave young men out of their teens fighting the enemy to save this country is this not our country, Don’t we owe anything to this great nation , should we not be indebted what this great nation and the Armed forces have given us...
Today I see people in AC cabins struggling to go on the road, Crimping if anyone has to walk on foot..Why don’t we realize that someone is in the Jungle since four days chasing a terrorist so that the terrorist does not plant a bomb near our localities..Between mosquitoes wild animals and the many other difficulties ..the Jawans could have lead a more luxuries life than what they are living right now..but they choose not to because for them country comes first always and every time...
They have sacrificed their life’s for us and for a nation called India..have you asked this question to yourself what have you done for your country..I know most of us even don’t remember the names of the Brave soldiers who have sacrificed their life for us...
During Kargil I was a Kid I saw a huge surge in patriotism of the nation they cheered for jawans but after kargil war everything disappeared and I have seen people being disrespectful for the brave soldiers...
Same was the case with 26\11 mumbai attacks in four days everyone forgot about the brave souls who put in their best effort to kill the Terrorist.
All the candle light marches come to an end and we forget everything so easily...
We protest everything like University exams, College mess, Regional issues etc etc..Who the hell will protest against the people who have made a mockery of the system people who have our armed forces to blame for every situation,we made a hero of the people who won us the world cup but we never realize the real life hero who is in the border protecting you and me ..why?
Why do we not realize that human life cannot be compensated..why are we so disrespectful as a nation why?
Why there is no war memorial for the soldiers post independence why do we not take part in a candle light march when the Government wants to build statues of prominent leaders and not of the brave soldiers...
Why is it that always we need to be reminded that we owe our freedom to someone....
After class XII lakhs of people appear for the prestigious few Hundred seats of the NDA...those who pass and join NDA make a pledge to serve the country and its people..at a age of 17...
At the age of 17 cracking NDA is the hardest exam I say tougher than an IIT entrance..The boys sign up for the hardships at an very early age while most of us are even afraid to go out on our own at that age...
We as a nation should be grateful to the brave souls and we should respect the soldiers and at least remember them ...Create awareness around you ....So that the Soldier on the Border Knows there is a billion of people who care about him...
Jai Hind..
