WTF is this camo design and color we have painted our vehicles with? That bright green looks pretty bizarre and flashy. Ridiculous to say the least!

Maybe they are supposed to be stationed at Arunachal Pradesh, that would explain the colour choice.

Whatever. The military part of the R-Day parade has been toned down so much that I don't find the enthusiasm I used to have at my childhood to watch it. I developed my love for all things military from watching R-Day parade which was the only option from a kid from suburbs of Kolkata to have exposure to the show case of might of India. I still remember the year MARCOS came in public. I never watched R-Day parade beyond the military marches and these days I find it futile as the marching gets over almost before it has begun.

After lurking since inception of forum, I joined this forum after watching an R-day parade (check join date )
Thing is when we were younger we just had more energy and enthusiasm.

But completely agree that all this regional dramas and bike stunts are unnecessary.

I am still desperately hoping for an Arjun Mk2 at the parade.

Maybe next year we'll see NAL Saras, Rafale or even Tejas with Kaveri engine and K9. Wishful thinking.
