The first image is a Model. the rest are IA.

If active duty SF soldiers are okay'd to model of adv of companies i think I will be pretty much done tracking / interacting on Indian military matters.

Are u sure, cause the post mentions an adgpi operator wearing the sf RIG, and I can only see the first operator in that RIG.

I don't think the first image is a model, because it's been taken from a video posted on the official account of Northern Command. It's a longer video out of which the excerpt has been posted on Armasen's page.

Fair. Then coming to my second comment. if he is SF and is being allowed to be used in Adverts which are not armed forces PR we have a serious serious problem within the thinktank at HQ.

That's a genuine problem I noticed as well. IMHO, the standards of OpSec with Para SF especially have degraded over the years from what they used to be.
Garuds never had it I suppose.. and MARCOS still maintain it to a large extent as per my observation.

I highly doubt he is SF though as neither armasen nor the northern command have said he is a member of sf, everyone else in that video look like they are from RR.

Was it hush-hush? Perhaps possible JSOC-AFSOD interaction? Why're they talking about it now?

Pure speculation without much reason to think so


the VP exercises have been getting less and less publicised with each edition, either because they are scaling them down or because they are becoming more institutionalised and neither side wants to talk about them openly.

Also haven't heard about any follow-up Green Beret-NSG exercises after the first Balance Iroquois Ex in 2015, who knows if it still happens or was a one off.
