Most people think that the Navy is like any other “job”. The Navy is not a Job. The Navy is a Way of Life. In my writings, I want to give my readers an authentic taste of the Naval Life (which we experienced first-hand in the Navy) – at Sea and Ashore – which is quite different from the jingoistic mumbo-jumbo in recruitment advertisements – or – the heroic hogwash exhibited in most action movies or the “Colonel Blimp” or “Captain Haddock” type caricatures shown in Bollywood films.
