In our upcoming podcast episode, we welcome two distinguished authors, Sudeep Krishna and Dr. Purav Gandhi who have penned an inspiring book on the brave men and women of the Indian military services.
Their journey to gather material for this book took them to places seldom accessible to civilians, such as the bunkers in Uri and the sites of significant military events. They also had the rare opportunity to stay with cadets at the National Defence Academy in Pune, observing their rigorous daily routines up close. Their visit to the Gwalior airbase was a highlight, where they mingled with India's elite fighter pilots, the 'Top Guns'. The authors share awe-inspiring stories of several captains, colonels, and commodores, bringing to life the leadership and dedication of our military personnel. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in the lives and sacrifices of those who serve our nation. Don't miss this deep dive into the heart of our armed forces and the extraordinary places where they operate.
Additionally, the authors ventured close to the Line of Control, experiencing the tension and determination first-hand. They got the thrilling chance to fly a Mirage simulator, offering a glimpse into the precision and skill of our pilots. Their visits to various army messes and canteens allowed them to speak with jawans, cadets, and everyone around, gathering personal and heartfelt stories. These fantastic, up-close experiences paint a vivid picture of military life, leadership, and camaraderie. Tune in for an episode filled with extraordinary tales and insights into the lives of our defenders.
