Hey guys,

Some NDA humour (Graffiti from Sudan / Science Block). This really rocks!!!

Kehte hai ishq me neend ud jaati hai...
Koi humse bi pyaar karein himein neend bahut aati hai...

Once second termers went to report to a  CSM. Course Senior knocked on the door and said:
"Excuse me sir, Second termers reporting sir..."
Ander cabin se lete lete, CSM asked: "How are you?"
Cadet replied: "Sir I'm fine!"
CSM again asked: "Abe how are you?"
Cadet replied "Sir I am fine sir."
CSM angrily replied: "Abe haal nahi pooch raha, ye bataao kitne ho?"

Life is a journey... NDA is an accident!

A Rs 20/- form f@#$%& my life...

=> to sleep is human, not to wake them up is divine!!!!!!
=> DLTGH- 154!!!!!!! Oh god !! Can you speed up the time?

An anecdote...

This happened when I was in my third term... Within the first week of the term.... A rustic first termer became a Flanky..... As per tradition, they also get cold coffee...... but this rustic first termer after getting a glass full of cold coffee (which we used to die for...), went straight to the bathroom with it..... A Sixth Termer there saw him pouring it into the drain!!!
He asked in pure shock...."What are you doing?"

The rustic First Termer replied....... "Sir, the tea is not hot!!!!!!!"

Life is a girl.   NDA is a gang rape...

Bewafa ke pyaar mein, humne itna intezaar kiya, aur is intezar mein na jane kitnonse pyar kiya...

"Why is home so sweet???
B'coz there is less sugar in mess!!!"

One's lonely
Two's company
Three's crowd
And four's squad - “Sawdhan Chal!”

When all places in hell was full GOD made NDA in Khadakvasla !!!
Every year 2 lakh fools appear 4 an exam out of which only 300 idiots are unlucky enough to get through!!!

Life is a beautiful journey NDA is an accident!!!

This cadet was sent on charge by a lady instructor (lookalike 'Taadka') for giving 'meaningful looks to her. Everyone dreaded that 'Bigul'* would soon blow for this unfortunate soul. 

Sqn office instead gave him a special liberty to go to Pune city and "change his perspective" of beauty 

"It happens only in NDA !!!!"
(* those who don't know:bigul is the trumpet blown to celebrate the relegation of any defaulter cadet!)

It makes sense doesn’t it - *You can see a senior naked but not in the rig!

*Going through hell........... keep going

Feeling better? Don’t worry, you will get over it!

A bunch of new desks were installed in the LH-21 and 23 in Sudan (Maths Dept)...
A day later... Big ribbon with scissors made using a marker - "I hereby declare this desk open for graffitti!!!

Written on the desk....Laid down  my head in memory of those who laid down their lives trying to keep awake in class of physics after double outdoors( PT &Drill)......

A salute to the great land  NDA...

which taught us that
x-country is not run by legs but by the mind...

Maths is not learnt in classes but on ropes...

Swimming is not learnt in swimming pool but in bucket...

Firing is not done by pulling the trigger but by rolling...

A place which taught "how to learn NDA prayer" by having the world upside down

A place which taught us that Cold coffee and pastry are the best delicacies in the world

And everything else by creamrolling..

A place which taught that 'nothing is impossible' is just not a phrase...

Hats off to NDA

Lastly not forgetting the Tipsy Pudding, 

A place which taught us that there is nothing better than this in life.

Thank you NDA for serving us T-P during our Reunions
