Dear Sukhi,

I am very happy to learn that an exclusive Blog for veteran Paratroopers has been created.This is truly in keeping with the Para theme “Once a Trooper, Always a Trooper” without any caste, creed, or distinction. This Blog gives all the Paratroopers, both serving and retired, an excellent platform to interact and share their views and remain in touch with the Para fraternity.

Well done, and keep it up !

Happy Landings !!

My Dear Sukhi,

Great job, done in super time. This was a need I always felt which hopefully would be met to meet the aspirations of all the paratroopers who take pride in being a part of one family.

The Blog could not have been better. God bless you !

With Best wishes.

Gen Seth.

Hi Dear,

Greetings!

This could include Your memoirs, Your excursions & experiences; poetry/poems written by You, photographs taken; events coverage and after-event reports; and anything else that would interest the Visitors. No Postings with security implications will be entertained.

Needless to say that all Your Postings should be decent and proper. Blogger himself is responsible and accountable for content of his Posting(s). The Blog Team indemnifies itself from any damages.

The Postings will be moderated without losing your 'flavour' in keeping with the aim of the Blog. Happy Blogging !!
