To the Peril of my Life

By Shekhar Gupta

With a loaded Sten gun, I nudged one of the sleeping bags hard. The man inside moved and mumbled something. Simultaneously, my other companions also poked their guns hard against the other four men sleeping. Soon, all of them were awake and began struggling to wriggle out of their sleeping bags.

"Don't move, we are the Indian Army," I said with a forced whisper. During the mission, we maintained complete silence to capture our targets.

There are a few more similarly exciting moments of my army life that are included in this book. Though army personnel serve the country to the peril of their lives, my short stint in the army provided me with an enriching experience and thrilling adventure of a lifetime.
