Faujis can write<\/em><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

And they can be funny too<\/em><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

I love the net ; who doesn’t ! It is not just for the ease of accessing information or entertainment ; but for the ability to express yourself , to reach out to people from world over, to a few people who would listen to you.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t
<\/p>\n

I love blogs, be it a photo blog, video blog or simple text blog on technical subjects or others on stories of day to day life. Most blogs get relatively less attention even if the author of the blog is someone like Amitabh Bachchan. Views and likes are likely to be in thousands rather than in millions as it would be in say Tik Tok or You tube.<\/p>\n

But the few who do read provide great satisfaction to the writer . It is a bonus to get some response, positive or negative , from fewer people who choose to comment.<\/p>\n

People in uniform , the world over, have some unique traits, good or bad , depending on from where you look. Some , like Joseph Heller , author of Catch -22 , have written about their experiences in uniform , not as miltary history but as a satire on the armed forces and the whole business of warfare.<\/p>\n

Essentially, there is nothing funny in climbing a vertical rope as a cadet, sometimes in full battle gear. It is\u00a0 sheer pain to say the least. Yet when you see a cartoon of the scene, it makes you smile. We have all enjoyed the antics of Beetle Bailey and the Sarge. Catch -22 is truly a classic that is biting satire on army and yet so popular in military libraries.<\/p>\n

In this post, I intend initiating a compilation of some blogs by faujis\u00a0 who have written not just about strategy and tactics and\u00a0 professional issues, but have touched on\u00a0 ordinary things in life as a fauji would view.<\/p>\n

Life is difficult. Sometimes more difficult in the forces. But human beings have an extraordinary ability to laugh at himself or herself . It is this trait that makes life not just bearable but even enjoyable. Eggs taste great sunny side up and tales sound good funny side up!<\/p>\n

I have listed some blogs not in any particular order . To refrain from sounding judgmental I have introduced the writers in their own words. Here we go!<\/p>\n

I am sure there would be many more. I have come across many anonymous \/ pseudonymous blogs\u00a0 where I have not been able to trace the writer behind. Hope to add on more links.<\/p>\n
