From the publisher

Old Fogies-or veterans retire from all the armies of the world.This is also synonymous with the advent of growing old, being misunderstood because the younger generation has a different view point about every subject since they are digital in their thought process.This book is a tribute to the old timers who laugh away their blues, crack jokes and keep abreast of things in their nation and the world.This is the modus operandi of living life to the full, avoiding loneliness indulging in camaraderie and looking out for each other despite their ill health.It is respect, love and respect bundled together for each member of the group as they traverse their twilight years!A story of love, adventure, wit and courage of old soldiers who are veterans of the World War and still laugh at their follies! The Colonel feels that this book will allow retired officers from the Defence services and others fro service backgrounds to understand the nuances of getting older and dealing with situations which appear more difficult in old age than they did when they were younger.He feels that seniors need to prepare themselves to realistic conditions before they enter the Twilight Zone! They must learn to keep in touch with realities, get rid of unnecessary baggage at a younger age and then enjoy old age with a flourish! The secret to living a charmed life is of course

About the author

Colonel Mahip Chadha is a retired army officer residing in New Delhi, India. A graduate of the Indian Military Academy, Chadha served in the Indian Army for nearly 34 years. During this time, he served in the Third Gorkha Rifles-his inspiration for the novel. Colonel Chadha is the author of Grit, Guts and Gallantry-which motivates the youth of India to consider the Army as a viable career option. He also wrote a novel titled SOLJER SOLJER in which he describes life in the infantry. Colonel Chadha has published GRIT GUTS AND GALLANTRY -The Officers and Gentlemen Of the Indian Army, through Rupa Publications in India. This is a motivational book and serves to act as a much needed career counseling requirement, for students of classes 9 to 12, so that they can consider the Armed Forces of India as a viable career. It also assists children in the National Cadet Corps to understand the Army better. Other Ranks seeking a commission will also benefit from it! Colonel Chadha was married to Kiran, who passed away tragically in April 2010. They have two daughters-Ganiv the elder, is married to Inderjit and has one son Jaskirat;while Jyotan lives in Australia with her husband Daljit and two sons Jaskaran and Jaskabir.
