10th June 2013 - the first day of the 69th Course and the first event is the Commandant's Introduction. India is the 4th most populous country in the world and probably only in India could you witness the sight of 450 Indian Army Majors (with the odd Navy and Air Force Officer thrown in) trying to identify their seat from a single piece of paper pinned to a noticeboard. Glad I bulled my shoes - because they didn't get stood on - much!!!
So while it was a scrum for us to get into the auditorium - at least the Commandant arrived in style - flanked by mounted troopers.
