All of a sudden the age has been reduced from 27 to 24 years in all the three services.

I feel that the age must be increased to 30. Even IPS has the age bar at 30. Why not have the same for DEFENCE FORCES as well?
Job in the The Indian Army is one of the toughest jobs in the world ( be it as an OR, JCO, or an Officer).


The army has fought three full scale wars ( 1962,65,71), Forcible occupation in 1948 (J & K ), Eviction of enemy with

force in 1999 ( kargil), Ops in Sri Lanka, Insurgency in Nagaland, Assam and In J & K, Foreign Missions & scores of

Aid to Civil Authorities( including minor tasks like rescuing fallen kids from bore wells). It is not an office job, at times

you confer under a tree standing and on the other extreme assume orders and try to do your best.

Enhancing the age will bring in people with set ideas, who will never become team players. the training academies

require young impressionable minds wherein you fore sake your individual identity and assume a group identity.

Nation , Army, Paltan, Company. It takes years to forge an identity like this.

Police job is far simpler. For the Fauj younger the better.

Joining the Indian Army ( as an Officer)

For young, adventurous guys(now even girls in some branches) who love the outdoors more than their pet addictions
like Facebook / Internet / Play Stations. For the smell of camp fire and the taste of food cooked over slow embers when in camp/field,

For the honest sweat shed & sweaty patches on your clothes after a great outdoor routine, be it a 5 KM run in battle gear or a run in PT kit, or a vigorous game like football / hockey / basketball with troops,

For the sweet aches & pains after a hard day,

For the belly laugh with a colleague over a shared joke,

For a smart turn out and a sense of pride in uniform,

For being young in age yet having the gumption to shoulder a National responsibility,

For the uber cool mess parties, where the heady cocktail of fitness,beauty of guests, good conversation in measured tones adds to the atmospherics of being among the best,

For the training schedules and bara khanas with the men you command, their deep love for their Nation & their job, their rustic charm,their bravery & concern for you in combat, the smiles on their eager faces when they meet you & are happy, their anxiety ridden angst & their looking up to you for a solution when in trouble,

For that manly colour OG / Battle fatigues,

For the heaven sent karmic duty of being given a chance to serve the Motherland without the narrow confines of caste,colour,creed,background etc,

For the glory of your Parents / Family, For the Abhishekam of a warrior for life who has sacrificed his personal identity for a group identity,

THIS IS IT
JOIN THE ARMY & EXPERIENCE THE DIFFERENCE !!
