PRACTICE IS THE HARDEST PART OF LEARNING AND TRAINING IS THE ESSENCE OF TRANSFORMATION
There is no denying the fact that soldiering is the oldest and most respected profession of mankind where the victor re-writes history and joins the lanes of Gods. Whether it has been Lord Rama’s army crossing the unfathomable and gargantuan sea during ancient times or Abhimanyu breaking the Chakravyuh in the Mahabharata or a blitzkrieg through Ardennes 70 years ago or the shock and awe of recent wars, the importance of occupation of land by ground forces has not lost its essence. Even on the present-day modernized battlefield, it is only the basic military skills that become the deciding factor in the outcome of a battle.
