LOL.
Don't be so sharp, young man, you will cut both of us.
Sainik School Purulia. I wanted to join the Navy, nothing else mattered. I had got myself fit, and passed all the school preliminary fitness tests. All my prelim. written tests got very high grades (I was instructor in the NCC squad and earned my certificates). At the very last physical examination, as I was exiting the room, I turned around and told the doctor (a school employee, who had seen me struggle to gain the physique that the sardars and the Naga boys displayed with effortless ease) that when I shut my left eye, I saw double. And that was that. One of the two grim turns in my life.
If - IF - I had got in, I would have been in the 43 or 44 batch; only 2 or 3 of us made it each of the boards in a year. My senior, from the first batch of the school to go up, either 40 or 41 batch , retired as Brigadier in the EME; my batch-mate retired as CO of one of the Bihar Regiment battalions. The month before I was scheduled to go and visit him on his post-retirement job in Assam, the Karbi Anglong kidnapped him, tortured him hideously and killed him. Others a batch junior made it to Rear Admiral; Arup Raha was from the school, but one of the squeaky little kids whom we paid absolutely no attention to; he was about eight batches junior. Lt. General Subrata Saha, who was GOC XV Corps, was also from the school. We had a number of three star generals from the school and quite a few in the other services as well.
I take it you were 2003 pass-out.
I deeply envy you.
