I think you are not a good Soldier, you are a $$$ GHOST who Serve the NATION... NOT FOR LOYLTY AND HONOUR..
My good man Tamil.
It is for Loyalty and Honour I joined the Army. It was a family tradition that I could not forsake.
You must be a young man, so traditions may not be important to you. {Edited by me}
It is not $$$ that got me into the Army. It is family traditions. I am sure I could have done better elsewhere (that is what the SSB advised me) , but then we are steeped in traditions and have to honour our family desires (though unspoken) as also for the Nation.
Visit the National Archives and you will find enough there to indicate which family I belong to. I daresay, we are impoverished. You may even check Beveridge's (hopefully you-know-who he is!) 'History of Bengal' and you will know much about my family.
Read 'Those Days' by Sunil Gangopadhyaya and you will find we are mentioned.

I don't care what my ancestors were. I care what I am.
I daresay, I did MORE than you for my Nation.
Even a foreigner OOE, a Canadian, appreciates what I did.

I am sure you are equally illustrious. Do pray educate us!
