RE: [IAC#RG] Job of Soldiers the World Over.

1.Why not think of this subject from" human instinct" (psychological ) point of view?
 2. Persons  basically possessing  "Domination" instinct(covert/overt) are naturally drawn towards "ruling " (political) class , other types of instincts draw  persons to other different man-made classes/categories.
3. The Hallmark ( ie greatest identification character) of the " Domination " type is the easily identifiable sister instinct of "GREED" ; so commonly seen in the  political class.
4. Let us also not forget that :-
(a) exceptions exist in all
(b) the level/ degree could vary greatly  (in this "Relative" world of ours)
(c) the disposition due to instincts is NOT restricted only in humans but in ALL forms of life.

I am not a soldier, but have had my own paternal uncles and many cousins serving in the armed forces. There are many who take to defending the country on their own free will. My uncles joined the army against the wishes of my grandfather, who was concerned about their safety. My cousins joined the navy and air force too, against opposition from their mothers.

Another uncle, a doctor, felt he could serve the nation best as a doctor in a field hospital, and became a part of the set-up.

 

In the case of Sikhs and Rajputs, it is a matter of pride to serve in the defence forces. It is nothing to do with being rich or poor; the same goes with Garhwalis and Kumaonis.

Not seen sons of Ministers, MPs, MLAs as Soldiers. (3) Not seen sons

the actual soldiers then protecting the borders and doing great
service to the nation during national calamities?
