It must have amused the cadets of Sainik School, Kazhakuttam, no end on Saturday to see five three-star rank officers seated in their classroom.
Two Lieutenant Generals and three Air Marshals cheerfully sat down in one of the classrooms for a short photo-op during the 54th reunion of alumni organised by the school and the Old Boys’ Association (OBA). ‘’It’s like an annual pilgrimage to be here,’‘ Lieutenant General M. Unnikrishnan Nair, who is the current National Cybersecurity Coordinator, crystallised the general feeling in a single sentence.
The 54th reunion, sponsored by the 1996 batch was attended by hundreds of former cadets and their families. The presence of the five serving three-star officers who are currently holding top positions in the Army and the Indian Air Force added a high-profile tone to the event.
