DIE HARD GUYS

Prof Dr Colonel ( Retired) K Prabhakar Rao

Truth is very difficult to digest indeed. Particularly for some guys who are ground in the mill having lost all their self respect and individuality being in uniform. That is what Jaswant Singh A parliamentarian and a former army officer said in his book on army life . He served army for some time and left soon to join politics. He states that Army training is aimed at breaking the will of person into submission and making him a mere robot devoid of all his inner qualities, Very true to great extent. they guy turns into a parrot chirping Yes sir.. Yes sir three bags full... None for me and al for you....... Inspite of such tough training at IMA some officers retain their original bearings and moorings. Such men can not accept the nonsense that goes on under the cover of discipline, training, bootlicking and sychophancy which many dies hards do. Certain hard core and die hard guys can not accept criticism and real facts and they dish out harsh out bursts out of ignorance while they might have spent their time in uniform doing slavery under the guise of discipline aprt frrom sychophancy, bootlicking to be straight. We can't do any thing to them because they are made that way and we have to feel sorry for them and for their ignorance and inability to see truth and have an iota of self respect. They consider the revealings of truth by any one as frustration and feel that the guys reveling truths better have gone out of uniform thus saving the organization. They feel themselves as the greatest saviors of the organization while they are the worst. Moles hiding under earth make tunnels and degrade the soil and make it weak. Such guys do more damage to the organization like moles because the yes masters go with flow without spine and support and take part in activities that finally undermine organisations at a later stage causing unimaginable damage. Indian army is the living example. God bless such souls acting as the saviors of the organization leading a pseudo life of outward show with tight upper lip although they burn with in.
