LIFE OF A SOLDIER

Friends, today I'm going to share with you life of soldier. It's not an autobiography. But it's a real incident which was narrated to me by a BSF (Border Security Force) soldier when we were both travelling in the same coach of the train. The following is the excerpts from the same:

     

He told me it's a very difficult job. But it's his service to Bharat Maa which persist him in continuing his work. He then elaborated that he needs to be at border for about 12 hours a day. Although it's difficult to do for 12 hours they also need to carry their rifle or machine gun which is very heavy along with their uniform. So it again makes it very difficult.



Keep all these hardship on other side. Let me tell you other things which will make them even more respectable. They are alone and separated by metres so they can't talk with their colleagues and friends as they may be very far from you. Also they need to keep watch in certain areas of border. So just scanning with above all difficulties; away from their home makes their service very assiduous.

No doubt they do their 12 hour service in two shifts separated by gap of hours, in which they need to take their Lunch/dinner and sleep also in that particular time. Also shift changes very frequently, so nothing may be fixed.

He also mentioned me one difficulty which they faces is that on the border wind blows with very high speed so again they need to wear special spectacles. They also even need to be awake because it's necessary. Of course when we be at one place for 6 hours continuously with no one surrounding us and doing the job of just watching in one particular area, we will feel sleepy. But they can't even wink because it may be the reason for infiltration.

Not only BSF but every soldier whether it's police, army or any other person they are doing very tough service for our safety, for our INDIA.



Last but not least,we must not forgot that some soldiers get martyred for the nation. It's a great sacrifice. After all, their family member have lost their loved ones. Thus we must respect every soldiers for what they are and for their service to mother INDIA.

THANK YOU SOLDIERS.
