The edition also carries comprehensive articles on the importance of a CDS, fast-tracking paramilitary and police modernisation, and a report on the recently held Eurosatory exhibition in Paris. The Diplomacy section carries a feature on India’s security cooperation with East Asia. The Periscope section carries a writeup on the recent successful test of Agni-IV IRBM (Intermediate-Range Ballistic Missile). Review of a book depicting the life experiences of an IPS officer brings the issue to an interesting conclusion. The July, 2022 edition of the magazine is a must-read for everybody.

This is because it reveals the formidable challenges encountered by soldiers and need for team spirit and cohesion that soldiers seek in crunch situations when lives are at stake. That it takes years for such camaraderie and mutual trust to develop is what soldiering is all about. This narration of a grim accident along with its attendant bravery and follow-up follows the above-stated format
