About the Book:The discerning reader would perhaps be wondering, how could a child be a soldier in the Army?! Yes, it is true that, a V standard passed, a child of 12 years under peculiar circumstances was made to desert his family, friends and home, and he did don the full Army uniform. It would be interesting for the intelligent reader to know how this young tender child overcomes the various travails, turmoil & tribulations he faced in the pursuit of washing off the “Stigma” of being a “worthless child”, as branded by his own family. Besides, it is indeed enigmatic how without any formal education or without being to any school or college, he acquires a number of important degrees/diplomas. Finally with bated breath, the reader would discern in what tragic circumstances he hangs-up his uniform towards the end of 1986 to start second innings of his life in civil, where he is still batting solidly with the Score of 80.The investigating reader will find answers to all his inquisitive questions in this articulate book.
