It is a beautiful exposition of the qualities and skills that the NDA has been a hall mark for long.Some 50 years back every bright adventurous student who had some exposure to NCC yearned to become an officer in the armed forces and prepared for the NDA entrance, but over the years competing professions that assured a better living standard and a stable life took precedence,besides the frequent exposure of scams and antics of officers in the higher echelons which had cumulatively scarred the army beyond any cosmetic repair.A.M.Randhawa has done a nice job but the interviewer had failed to bring out the administration of justice in the armed forces or the grievance redressal procedure which is still mooreed in the 19th century.Lastly the Air Marshal has failed to explain as to why such well trained cadets when they become officers in the army require the Jawans of a free country like India to polish their shoes and buckles besides running their house-hold and chaperoning their wifes and children.That the Commandant is from IAF,probably mitigates the culpability.
