Some insights into the life of Major Vivek Jacob (ex- 9 para).
Fantastic free wheeling conversation ! Made my day, thanks !
Yes, we need more such programs where ex-SF discuss freely.
His insights into some of the ah shortcomings of western SF deserve merit.

One more interview with this ghost officer, this time by an ex-navy officer (Lt. Cdr.) -
Part 1:


Part 2:

Can some of the knowledgeable folks here tell us if the "fuck all" parachute system been fixed or not ? Shocking to hear this. I think a couple of years back there was a parachute accident and some SF men lost their lives or were badly injured, so looks like we are still using the same old shitty parachutes ?

Remove Tavors and replace them with AKs and tell me if you could differentiate these guys from regulars

boggles the mind how much this unit has stagnated, entire SF careers have begun and ended with them using identical gear at the start and end
Interesting ruins in the background - Any idea where this was taken?
must be some kind of ex with a foreign Mil- the only time that IA wear flag patches

Good observation - it must be Indo-SG exercise at Babina then

Remove the tri color from front of the helmet and put it on the shoulder. It's not a cricket helmet
