About the Book
An amazing journey of an Infantry Unit, so proud of its heritage, to find itself at the Nadir, helped by circumstances - when its Commanding Officer was lost to an impulsive soldier's bullets; officer, men and weapon were lost in quick succession; Counter Terrorist operations went awfully wrong there seemed to be no light at the end of the tunnel. Morale of the Unit was at its lowest; others viewed it with circumspection and the question in every mind was, will the unit be able to bounce back?!
The Unit held its nerves, helped by resilience of its brave officers, JCOs and men; eager to redeem its `Name` and 'Izzat'-so dear to a soldier. The Unit fought back to regain its lost glory but not without paying its cost in sweat and blood!
The Day That Changed it All is written in the precise and unassuming language of a soldier. For the military reader, every page is full of lessons, big and small, in the craft of soldiering. It is one of the few works that explain simply and in lucid detail how a leader can drive his command to any extent of performance by training and motivation, how caring and preparation will any day outshine fear of punishment.
Though a military book, it is a must-read for all thinking people.
