MiNd oF a soLdieR
My brother has always fancied the army cos of discipline,courage,power and respect.Lately,he's been applying for available jobs and plying every angle seeking for employment.But his missions were almost impossible in the end.After umpteen trials,he gave it up to apply for short service as an air force recruit soldier.Atleast that would replace the redundancy and also open up avenues for him as it's a lucrative career that's booming in this country.Last week,the list of lucky applicants was out and his name had appeared there.With utter excitement,everyone at home gave him maximum support as well as advice.Plus,the pros lectured him with briefings and all the necessary details.Yesterday,i offered him my backpack as he gathered his required belongings.Then he went to the salon and shaved his scalp bald as an egg.All night,he waited patiently for his early reporting at the base the next day.This morning,he came over to my room and said goodbye."No phones or communication for now" he said,and went off like a soldier.Goodluck bro,train hard and see you when i see you again...
