10 years later...

A decade ago at this time, our soldiers were bravely climbing treacherous heights in the face of deadly enemy fire from the enemy. That enemy exists today too. But that is another discussion.

July 26th is Kargil day. When the day comes, I request you to spend a quiet moment remembering these men and thanking them. Its not much, but its better than nothing.

They Shall Live On...

It has been almost a decade since we fought the Kargil war. As is the norm, we have moved on with our lives and forgotten the 600 men who laid down their lives for our country. But I recently came across an article about those men. And every time I read it, I end up with a fair sized lump in my throat. Please take some time off your schedules and spend a few quiet minutes with them. I think every Indian owes them that much.
