Story
Ram is a young dynamic boy. He was always fascinated by the thought of joining the armed forces and
th
leading an adventurous life. When he was in his 12 standard he qualified for the NDA examination,
and even got selected in the SSB. What I see in the picture is that he is leaving to join the NDA and
his parents with his younger sister have come to the station to see him off. Though this was his first
occasion to be separated from his family, he quickly adapted to his new life and started doing very
well in the course. Finally, after three years of hard and grueling training he passed out of the NDA
with flying colours and went on to get his commission in the Indian Army. He is a very successful
army officer, ever ready to sacrifice anything for his nation.
Note: This story reflects the urge and motivation to join the armed forces, adapting to new
environment and sustained hard work.
