This is a compilation of seventeen unique ‘feel good’ short stories inspired by real-life incidents that reflect the inimitable yet enchanting adventures of a young doctor newly commissioned into the medical corps of the Indian Army and posted to a remote military cantonment in the Northeast of the country four decades ago. While imparting medical aid, advice and relief to the soldiers and their families is the essence of his newfound life, his experiences and interactions while on duty make for fun and often illuminating stories. This narrative is also a testimony to the intricacies of army life and its culture, the ethos and its spirit and celebrates in full measure the honourable life lived and the camaraderie enjoyed by the men and women in uniform. Many of the tales have joyful endings, a few culminate in tears but nonetheless, they reveal the soul of those bygone days of youthful exuberance and the carefree life in olive – green. This is just the kind of book that will appeal to the discerning reader seeking a large measure of humour, cheer and optimism in these difficult times.
Proceeds from this book will fund the education of deserving medical students across India.
