In a landmark visit, the three Service Chiefs together visited the National Defence Academy (NDA) at Khadakwasla in Pune, their alma mater, on August 20 and 21, during which they reviewed the ongoing training of cadets and the available training and administrative infrastructure, the Army said on Saturday. The Army said in a statement: “The visit marks a historical moment for this prestigious tri-service training Academy as all three service chiefs are coursemates from the 56th Course of NDA, which is rare and unique.” Prior to this, it was only in 1991 that all three Service Chiefs were coursemates. They belonged to the first course of the NDA, the erstwhile Joint Services Wing, the statement said.More Related News
