Army Life in Bangalore is really weird considering the fact that none of the Army kids want to be a part of the army gatherings.In a place like udhampur where the northern command of the indian army is situated going to the NSOI(north star officers institute)is an event to look forward to for all the Kids.I remember how i used to be excited to go these parties, especially of all the cute gals who used to come with their parents.This essensce of gatherings has gone for a conplete toss in bangalore as the most of the ARMY establishments are in the heart of the city.kids prefer going for a movie and a mug of beer with friends over a nice evening with their parents.it's also clearly evident that the army dependents who have always lived and studied in bangalore don't have much attachment with the ARMY, something very unlike typical army kids.The commercialization is definetly getting on the crowd as i see more and more army kids abstaining themselves from the gatherings and trying to get independent much before they should.Army society has been one of the best societies to belong to and thus it's a shame that we are missing out on it and trying to unbelong from it.
