    Brig SK Pal Chaudhary

    Brig SK Pal Chaudhary occupies a distinct place in my heart. An unassuming, competent, confident senior who encouraged ordinary mortals like me to express oneself without fear or favour and stand up to what is right. I came close to him since both of us landed up in Tac Wing, immediately after wedding and had our first children almost at the same time. Thus it was a family friendship. Vasanta and Ela got along wonderfully, sharing their experience on the unknown waters of uniform, married life and motherhood. Mona and Shobha enjoyed each others company in their early childhood.

    So when I received an email from Col VL Narayan, it was a rude shock; between the couples who were then serving the alma mater ( Pal & Ela/VLN & Shankari/Sathesan & Uma/Nat & Vasanta) Pal is no more.

    What cannot be cured has to be endured. MAY THE NOBLE SOUL REST IN PEACE. May GOD give strength to Ela & Mona.
    Brig G Natarajan, Signals
